Abstract

MAVIS is an instrument being built for the ESO's VLT AOF (Adaptive Optics Facility on UT4 Yepun). MAVIS stands for MCAO Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph. It is intended to be installed at the Nasmyth focus of the VLT UT4 and is made of two main parts: an Adaptive Optics (AO) system that cancels the image blurring induced by atmospheric turbulence and its post focal instrumentation, an imager and an IFU spectrograph, both covering the visible part of the light spectrum. The MAVIS project has completed PDR and is currently in the final design stage of development. We present the integrated framework, and the software tool developed the reliability, availability, maintainability, and hazards analysis, examples of RAMS analysis and the impact on the design and development of MAVIS. Additionally, we present how the RAMS framework integrates with MAVIS model-based system engineering and project management frameworks and tools.
