Digital twin components and systems

Digital twins

Sustainable mobility

Digital twins

What does it solve?

Methodological support and (optimal) design of new components and their manufacturing processes, (aero)structures and intelligent and efficient mechanical / electrical / electronic / mechatronic systems for new means of transportation (electric, autonomous, connected), through the intensive application of digital twins and integration of technologies.

Advantages and benefits

Application of Digital Twins for the design, development and industrialization of components and systems of platforms/vehicles for sustainable mobility, reducing the time and costs of design and development of new products, while increasing their efficiency, safety, reliability and functionality and reducing their environmental, economic and social impact.

  • Digitalization/modeling of materials for the (optimal) design of new lightweight and operationally efficient components and (aero)structures (efficient use of materials and use of efficient materials; process optimization; durability and maintenance; smart and multifunctional materials), considering eco-design and sustainability (development, evaluation and application of recycled and bio-based materials, life cycle analysis, design for separation and disassembly – circularity).
  • Digital twin of material transformation processes, combining physics-based simulation models and real on-line sensing data. Application to the investigation of the resulting process-morphology-properties relationships, to the fine-tuning of plant processes, their monitoring and re-optimization and, ultimately, to the real-time adaptive control of the production means, as a strategy to be developed towards defect-free manufacturing.
  • Digital twin of intelligent and efficient mechanical / electrical / electronic / mechatronic systems (Model Based System Engineering and X-in-the-Loop methodologies) to support the design, development and validation of actuation systems, electrohydraulic actuation, power converters, thermal management, sensing and navigation, etc. considering hardware and software components. Application to drivetrain (brakes, suspension, steering), powertrain (electric motors, converters, storage systems) and ADAS/remote operation/teleoperation/autonomous systems.
  • Digital twin for the optimization of production processes from the logic of the manufacturing process, demand, supply and production capacity. Application to layout design, improvement (and design) of material movement processes, virtual commissioning, warehouse operations, etc.

Application of robust design methodologies, eco-design, Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA), Design for Disassembly (DFD), etc. for the development of new climate-neutral products.
