"Over the last two decades, Digital Twins have become the intelligent representation of future development in industrial production and daily life. Consisting of over 50 chapters by more than 100 contributors, this comprehensive handbook explains the concept, architecture, design specification and application scenarios of Digital Twins. As a virtual model of a process, product or service to pair the virtual and physical worlds, Digital Twins allow data analysis and system monitoring by using simulations.The fast-growing technology has been widely studied and developed in recent years. Featured with centralization, integrity and dynamics, it is cost-effective to drive innovation and performance. Many fields saw the adaptation and implementation across industrial production, health care, smart city, transportation, and logistics. World-famous enterprises such as Siemens, Tesla, ANSYS and General Electric have built smart factories and pioneered digital production, heading towards industry 4.0. This book aims to provide an in-depth understanding and reference of Digital Twins to technical personnel in the field, students and scholars of related majors, and general readers interested in intelligent industrial manufacturing"--
Over the last two decades, Digital Twins (DTs) have become the intelligent representation of future development in industrial production and daily life. Consisting of over 50 chapters by more than 100 contributors, this comprehensive handbook explains the concept, architecture, design specification and application scenarios of DTs.
