What is a Digital Twin?
• NASA Definition (adapted)
• Modelling and simulation of the as-built [system] state,
• as-experienced loads and environments, and
• other [system] specific history
to enable
• high-fidelity modelling of individual vehicles
• throughout their service lives

Digital Twins
• A Digital Twin to develop Blue Denmark
• Imagine having access to information about every bit of
your ship - from engine performance to hull integrity -
available at a glance throughout the full lifetime of the
vessel
17
What are Digital Twins For?
• Improved planning and dynamic scheduling
• Decrease bottlenecks and resource conflicts
• Improved maintenance
• Using diagnostic and predictive analytics
• Optimization of complex systems
• Simulation using mathematical and statistical models
• Sending control commands to the local microcontrollers
• Real-time sensor data to track effectiveness
• ...
18
What are Digital Twins For?
• ...
• Centralized and integrated data from whole lifecycle
• Differing levels of access, using cloud storage and analytics
• Used for simulation, optimization, design information or
more effective concurrent work of multidisciplinary teams
• Augmented reality technology
• Virtually assisted installation and maintenance
• Worker training
• Reduced energy consumption
• Energy monitoring and forecasting
19
MADRG Digital Twin Research
• Implementation focussed
• Suitable for existing/legacy systems
• Vendor neutral where possible
• Maximum use of "off-the-shelf" software
• Reduced development cost and time
• Cyber-security included
• Human integration
• Augment workers, rather than replace them
• Complex systems' control and coordination
• With provision for future changes/expansions
