Abstract:
Digital twin
A digital twin is a virtual representation of a physical product or process, which helps to understand and predict the performance characteristics of its physical counterpart. Digital twins are used throughout the product lifecycle to simulate, predict and optimize the product and production system before investing in prototypes and physical resources.
Using their multiphysics simulation, data analysis and machine learning capabilities, digital twins can show the impact of design changes, use cases, environmental conditions and countless other variables. This eliminates the need for physical prototypes, reducing development time and improving the quality of the product or end process.
To obtain precise modeling throughout the production or life of a product, digital twins use data from sensors installed on physical objects in order to determine in real time the performance of these objects, their conditions operation and the changes they undergo over time. Using this data, digital twins continually evolve and update based on changes in their physical counterparts throughout the product lifecycle. This closed-loop feedback system in a virtual environment enables companies to continuously optimize their products, production and performance at minimal cost.
The potential applications of a digital twin depend on the stage of the product lifecycle that is being modeled. Digital twins are generally of three types: product, production and performance. The combination and integration of the three digital twins as they evolve together form what is called the "digital thread". This thread runs through all stages of the product and production lifecycle and collects all the data it generates.
