Digital twin modelling is opening new possibilities for infrastructure design, management and maintenance, say UNSW experts. Imagine being able to peer into the future of a machine – tracking wear, predicting failures and optimising performance – without physically touching it. According to UNSW, this is the promise of digital twins: virtual models that mirror their physical counterparts …
