Digital Twinning and Simulation
Digital twins are used for modeling, simulation and optimization, but the quality of the digital twin depends on the validity and accuracy of the data used to build it. While the level of scrutiny required for different types of digital twins varies, it’s crucial to ensure that the data is mapped correctly and meets quality standards. Airlines possess vast amounts of data, which can be used to build digital twins of their aircraft. However, certifying or qualifying a digital twin requires careful consideration of factors such as the component level or the entire aircraft being modeled. By combining AI with digital twins and utilizing model-based system engineering, the potential for data-driven insights and optimization increases significantly. How accurate and reliable is Real-time Simulation Testing? However, challenges like limited access to physical hardware and the need for accurate simulation and emulation must be addressed to ensure effective verification and testing.
