A research paper specifically focused on the railway point (also called a switch or turnout) – the asset utilised for switching and locking rails, “slipping a track into two or more different tracks”.

A case study that walks through the practical issues faced when trying to reduce maintenance costs with a manufacturing digital twin

An article focused on bridges, but with learnings for assets made complex given the need to design whilst building, structural tensions, material issues, and rush to build.

This paper on electronic rail digital twins, presented at the Power Electronics, Drive Systems, and Technologies Conference focuses on the need for precision to execute an exact simulation of the performance of real physical system.

An article from 2019 that examined the maturing of digital twins in the North Sea focused on Total, Aker BP, and Shell who had each developed and deployed twins.

The SAS content piece advocates that heart of a digital twin is analytics. Not whether you can collect the data, but whether you can turn it from data to valuable transformative information.
