摘要：AbstractUmbilical cable is one of the key control equipment, for example, in the subsea oil and gas production system. That can be seen as a customized product related to specific parameters of use cases, e.g. installation site. In this paper, we first apply the calculation method for the reliability of the umbilical cable by advanced first-order second-moment method (AFOSM) and Monte Carlo method. Secondly, we demonstrate the use of Siemens NX and its framework for engineering knowledge representation called Knowledge Fusion (KF) to generate the parametric model of the umbilical cable design considering its reliability. Finally, we reveal the advantages of introducing a Knowledge-based Engineering (KBE) approach to integrate the CAD models extended with automated calculations for product reliability.
