Abstract
The article explores the integration of the classical ship design spiral of J.H. Evans with modern methodologies for managing complex engineering systems, including Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), Digital Twin and the principles of Agile System Engineering (Agile SE). It is shown that a hybrid approach, combining the structure of systems engineering and the adaptability of Agile, can significantly increase the efficiency of design processes, reduce time and provide flexibility in the face of rapidly changing requirements. Examples of successful application of hybrid approaches in shipbuilding are given, including the Navantia F-110, Rolls-Royce Marine and Hyundai Heavy Industries projects. An analysis of literary sources on the topic of research and a comparison of project approaches according to the main criteria was carried out. Recommendations for the formation of a digital «design spiral» based on the concept of a digital double and the traceability of requirements and its implementation in the management process of shipbuilding enterprises are proposed.
