Therefor specifics of these views are presented based on the use-case of civil aviation and aircraft cabins. Subsequently the concept of modular lightweight design and its concomitant benefits and challenges are outlined as well as the Model-Based Systems Engineering to assist the implementation of the approach into the product development processes for developing the modular hybrid design.en2212-82712021637642Elsevierhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Aircraft CabinModel-Based Systems EngineeringModular Lightweight DesignTechnikConference Paper10.15480/882.367610.1016/j.procir.2021.05.13610.15480/882.3676Conference Paper
