N2 - Computer aided engineering (CAE) provides proper means to support New Product Development (NPD) by simulation tools. Simulation furthers early identification of product characteristics to reduce costs and time. The applicability of simulation models in NPD strongly depends on their validity, thus validating a simulation poses a major issue to provide correct experimentation results. The authors propose a matrix based approach to combine solution neutral system representation, solution specific product representation, and product behaviour in order to raise system comprehension to support validation of simulation models. A case study exemplifies the suggested approach. This paper illustrates the matrix based product representation at composing a flexible multibody simulation of a highly dynamic linear shafting machine tool. The approach supports preprocessing and validation of a flexible multibody simulation model.
