Dissertation Joost Mertens: A digital twin approach to support the evolution of cyber-physical systems

Description

Computer modeling and simulation is found in many industrial applications, for example there exist CAD models, finite element simulations of mechanical parts, simulations of chemical plants, models of remaining life prediction and many more. Those models and simulations are used both in the design of systems, and during their operations. Furthermore, during a system's operation, data is collected and stored at a large scale, this is a result of what is commonly called the fourth industrial revolution, or industry 4.0. This revolution is that of computer automation and large scale data exchange, seen in the manufacturing industry of the 21st century. These computer models, and the widespread collection of data gave rise to the concept of a digital twin. A digital twin is a virtual representation or a mirroring of a real-world system.
