Project Explorer Viewer

The Project Explorer is used as the main navigation area for a MADE Project.

The viewer outlines the tree structure of a system model. It also displays the

number of items in a level of indenture, the item types (e.g. subsystem, component,

part), functions, failure diagrams or failure concepts if present.

In summary the Project explorer identifies:

• Hierarchies (LOI) in the System Model Structure
• Model Items: Systems, Subsystems, Components, Parts & Part-Pairs
• Number of model items in a level of indenture
• Item Function(s), Flow(s) & Flow Properties
• End-effect Items
• Item Failure Concepts
