Digital flowmeter twin
The seven-page article, "Electromagnetic digital flowmeter twin," by Subhashish Dasgupta and Vinay Kariwala in ABB Review, Feb. '18, p. 58, shows how digital twin software and finite element analysis (FEA) can model and optimize the design and performance of ABB's electromagnetic flowmeter by replicating field conditions.
Design, manufacture video
This 24-minute video, "Siemens PLM—the real value of the digital twin," includes a presentation by Aaron Frankel, product marketing director, Manufacturing Engineering Software, Siemens, who shows viewers how they can overcome conventions in design and manufacturing by using digital twins.
Ready to replica?
The 20-page whitepaper, "Is your organization ready to embrace a digital twin?" from Cognizant, covers organizational readiness, building blocks and best practices.
Shipboard simulation
An 18-page slide deck, "Implementing FPSO digital twins in the field," presented by David Hartell of Premier Oil at a recent Future Oil & Gas event, demonstrates how a digital twin can be used to design a floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, conduct subsurface modeling, perform pre-operations tasks, and optimize operations.
Predicting maintenance
The 14-minute video, "Digital Transformation in Matlab and Simulink with predictive maintenance and digital twin" presented by Opti-Num Solutions, shows users how to employ predictive maintenance and machine learning techniques to get insights from sensor data, and teaches how to create a digital twin of a physical plant.
