This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Nordic seminar “Physics-Based Digital Twins” held on 23-24 March 2021
The concept of Digital Twins in industry could completely change the way we look at product maintenance and product development. By looking at the real world and its digital counterpart, combined as a cyber-physical system, it should be possible to predict not only future maintenance needs, but also the effects of off-design events on expected life time, and even custom spare part design - based on the actual environment the product is operating in.
Through ingenious algorithms and breakthrough engineering technologies we have come a long way, and since many years Digital Twins have been integrated in manufactured products as well as in energy and transport infrastructure, with examples such as aero engines, bridges and district heating systems. Needless to say, the concept aligns perfectly well with the Industry 4.0 idea.
However, the Digital Twin become something of a hype with its peak in 2018, at least according to Gartner who claims that we are now deep down in the “trough of disillusionment” phase. But although public interest may have waned, the business opportunity is still very much there and the engineering community is working hard to close the technology gaps. In this seminar we revisit the definition of Digital Twins, ranging from the raw CAD models to high-fidelity connected twins, and their corresponding use cases.
