Twin Haha, this is a new thing that is quite popular in the technology industry in recent years
So what is Twin? Simply put, it is to create a virtual model that accurately corresponds to the physical entity and make an inappropriate metaphor, just like a physical entity looking in a mirror to produce the same virtual "twin" and is closely related. In this process, the two share data in real time.
Twin covers multiple fields! For example, industrial manufacturing, in the stage of designing and researching and development of new products, various practical factors such as machine performance parameters and working environment can be integrated into virtual digital models, and engineers can experiment by adjusting data!
For example, in terms of urban planning and construction, we provide global procurement services for weak current intelligent products! Create complex and fine digital twin models for various urban infrastructure situations such as traffic flow and energy consumption, and then use analysis tools to rehearse the various consequences after the implementation of different construction or transformation plans to assist relevant leaders in making efficient decisions.
Let's explain the key parts involved in Twin in detail
1. Data collection unit
Data collection is like filling the digital twin "body" with all kinds of flesh and blood. Multiple channels such as sensors and network monitoring equipment collect operating values related to physical entities in real time; production equipment vibration frequency, temperature, and voltage conditions.
2. Modeling and mapping part-it is the most important part
It is to build a high-precision virtual digital model; in terms of specific operations, artificial intelligence technology and machine learning related algorithms need to be used to accurately reflect the collected actual data to the virtual model. For example, if a digital twin model is created for a wind power plant, the power generation efficiency of each wind turbine can be simulated, and the specific rotation blade angle shown in different situations, etc.
3. The twin data is synchronized in real time. In actual work, the two parts, that is, the virtual model and the corresponding physical entity must always be exchanged. Take such an inappropriate example. If the wear of the machine tool parts exceeds the normal allowable range. At the same time, the physical entity will immediately perform certain necessary operating parameters debugging or other related operations to ensure good overall operation results.
Let's look at some common questions and comparison answers.
Ask Ha, will the Twin virtual part deviate from the corresponding "source body deviation"? Answer: Although we try our best to accurately reflect reality, due to the existence of interference factors such as signal transmission and noise, it is inevitable that the redundant correction mechanism is needed during design to keep the error within a small level range in order to effectively solve this problem.
What is the difference between Twin and traditional simulation design? Answer: Most traditional simulation designs are used as a single independent tool to test various hypothetical scenarios at a specific stage. Digital twins are all-weather and uninterrupted, always simulated and modify and adjust the internal content of the virtual model according to the corresponding physical entity's operation in real time.
Twin I personally think it is indeed a technical field where potential is being released, although the progress of development has to face some stumbling blocks, and the prospects are quite bright. Create countless new opportunities and possibilities for the subsequent economic construction of different types of industries. I look at this emerging digital product very much. I say that I should make bold breakthroughs and bravely apply new technologies to give full play to my advantages and innovations.
