There has been a lot of innovation in systems engineering as well as some fundamental advances in the field of optics, imaging, lasers, and photonics that warrant attention. This volume focuses on applications, tools, and techniques of systems engineering-related topics from government, industrial, and academic settings such as development and operations (DEVOPS), agile methods, and the concept of the ?digital twin.?

Handbook of Systems Engineering and Analysis of Electro?Optical and Infrared Systems: Applications, Tools, and Techniques offers more information on the application of decision and risk analysis and statistical methods in systems engineering such as design of experiments (DOX) methods, including statistical process control, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, blocking, 2k factorial analysis, and regression analysis. It includes new material using model?based systems engineering and systems architecture methods in a system?level design application. The integration of recent high?speed atmospheric turbulence research results in the optical technical examples and case studies to illustrate the new developments is also included. A presentation of new optical technical materials for adaptive optics (AO) and atmospheric turbulence compensation (ATC) systems that are based on illumination from passive sources (natural light) or active sources (coherent light like from lasers) provides the technical focus for the systems engineering methods and techniques. Chapter 13 focuses on the technical aspects of the design process and uses the systems level design as an illustration. In addition to covering lifecycle cost estimation methods and applying them to an integrated case study that is used to illustrate important concepts and techniques throughout this work, the final section brings everything together in terms of technical, cost, and schedule performance.

Because this volume blends modern?day systems engineering methods with detailed optical systems analysis and applies these methodologies to EO/IR systems, this new edition is an excellent text for professionals in STEM disciplines that work with optical or infrared systems. It?s also a great practical reference text for the practicing engineer and a solid educational text for graduate?level systems engineering, engineering, science, and technology students.
