Hanan Amthiou, Mounir Arioua, Tajjedine Benbarrad
Abstract
Digital Twin is one of the most promising fields in Industry 4.0 due to its advantages related to real-time monitoring, performance analysis, and predictive maintenance. It is a virtual up-to-date representation of a realworld asset, system, being, and even city that is updated in real-time with data from its physical counterpart. By bridging the physical and digital, it is considered to be the innovation backbone of the future. In this contribution, we review the concept of digital twins, the development of its uses in industrial applications, and the level of integration in scientific work.
