An article that seeks to distance metaverse hype from the value of industrial digital twins

The value of Digital Twins can only be realized if Digital Twins and their virtual environment contain the same data and resulting information as their corresponding Physical Twins and real-world environment. This means that the need for more extensive, faster, and richer sensing of the physical world will dramatically increase as valuable use cases proliferate. In addition, we will evolve from working in physical or virtual environments to integrating and working simultaneously in both environments. Dr. Grieves discusses his views on the opportunities and issues of this evolution.

This short article provides a quick read introduction to digital twins applied to the oil & gas industry.

In this article McKinsey lay out a basic three-step approach to building a digital twin: creating a blueprint, building the initial digital twin, and then boosting its capabilities.

The title of the article says it all – eight benefits, briefly outlined.

This short promotional content piece provides a snapshot of benefits and case studies of Oil & Gas digital twins.

This article presents a discussion on how Intelligent Digital Twins (IDTs) will evolve and assist in developing and managing complex systems.

“For a greener, more reliable, more secure energy future, the utility industry must make digital twins a ubiquitous part of everyday operations. But what does this mean and how does it look?”

A review of Industry 4.0's impact on the future of the "digital supply chain"

This article looks at how intelligent digital twins will be able to improve manufacturing and bring about continuous improvement.

"Interoperability is critical to enable digital twins to process information from heterogeneous systems. The Digital Twin System Interoperability Framework seeks to address this challenge by facilitating complex system of systems interactions. Examples include scaling a smart building to a smart city to an entire country, or an assembly line to a factory to a global supply chain network,” said Dan Isaacs, CTO, Digital Twin Consortium.
