Emerging TechnologiesDigital Twins for Industrial and Infrastructure Applications
Digital twin technology creates live virtual replicas of physical assets and processes, enabling predictive maintenance, scenario testing and operational optimisation without disrupting live operations. This course explains how digital twins are built from sensor data, models and simulation engines, with examples drawn from manufacturing plants, power infrastructure and municipal water networks. Delegates learn to identify high value digital twin opportunities and the data foundations required to support them.
Course objectives
- Explain the architecture and data requirements of a digital twin system
- Identify high value digital twin use cases in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure
- Evaluate sensor, connectivity and modelling requirements for twin accuracy
