COURSE III LEVEL - Digital Twins for Engineering Structures - prof. Raj DAS - RMIT University

Introduce the overview of Digital Twin Technology (DTT) in the context of engineering design of structures. Describe the steps in setting up digital twins for engineering structures, including system models, sensor data collection, real-time integrations, and visualisation of virtual models.

• Understand the theory and operating principles of commonly used structural modelling and simulation tools for multi physics analysis of components and their integration for system analysis. Describe current and emerging applications of digital twins for the design and analysis of engineering structures, including lightweight composite and additively manufactured structures,
• Describe the transformative approach to managing engineering composite structures throughout their lifecycle, improving their design, performance, and sustainability that combines real-time data, advanced simulations, and predictive analytics. Demonstrate awareness of the relationship between digital twins and recent technologicaldevelopments in aerospace, transport, automotive and marine industries.
