“…However, the model does not present a standardised abstraction level effectively limiting transferability and interoperability between systems. A similar issue is found in [20], [21], and [22]: they provide great examples of interoperability and hardware-software integration agents but their approach is limited to the specific use-case and lack a standardised meta-model. Some have addressed this issue by creating digital twin models based on the OPC UA protocol [23], which is the proposed industrial standard for cross-platform communication and data exchange from sensors to the cloud.…”

As robotic systems become more interactive and complex, there is a need to standardise interfaces and simplify development processes. This is particularly pertinent in the field of manufacturing, where human-robot collaboration is on the increase, but where standards and proprietary software are key barriers to deployment and adoption.In this article we present the ROSIE Adapter, a generalpurpose, modular adapter developed in ROS designed to support the creation and connection of industry-ready digital twins. Together with our previous work on the modular CSI digitaltwin framework, we demonstrate how the ROSIE Adapter creates a versatile "plug-and-play" interface that simplifies the development of new robotic processes, and improves accessibility to novice users. Furthermore, the adaptor supports integration of intuitive interface devices, such as speech and augmented reality interfaces, which enable more natural collaboration. We describe the adaptor and its use in two real-world applications, demonstrate the ease of use via a three-day hackathon event, and provide results showing the faithfulness of the arising digital twins to their connected physical systems.

“…In the context of DT applications, Domain-specific DT is proposed in contrast to General-purpose DT and Multi-domain ubiquitous DT. General-purpose DT is defined as a real-time decision support sandbox 22,23 , which assembles components such as data acquisition, system modeling, and intelligence applications into a DT based on modular and distributed thinking in the software domain. Multi-domain ubiquitous DT (UDT) 24 is a complex infrastructure system information management model based on Domain-Driven Design (DDD), while Domain-specific DT is a digital solution designed for a specific industry or domain requirement.…”

As digital twin (DT) applications continue to proliferate across diverse industries, a noticeable gap exists in the availability of evaluation methods or frameworks to aid in the selection and development of DT platforms, particularly for Domain-specific application. To address this gap, this paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation framework for DT platforms, with a focus on Domain-specific application. The framework uses the Best-Worst Method and Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation method (BWM-FCE) to assess the performance, user experience, and economic effects of DT platforms. The proposed framework is applied to a case study of a high-speed railway DT platform and compared with other evaluation methods (Analytic Hierarchy Process and Best-Worst Method-Set Pair Analysis). The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed framework and highlight its potential for guiding the development and selection of DT platforms for Domain-specific applications.

“…The definitions of digital twins and digital shadows are closely connected, and they have overlapping roles [29]. The proposal by AboElHassan et al [30] suggests a role-based separation of digital shadow and digital twin. According to their proposal, a digital shadow is a digital replica of a physical system that matches the real-time state of the physical system.…”

Digital Twin (DT) is widely regarded as a highly promising technology with the potential to revolutionize various industries, making it a key trend in the Industry 4.0 era. In a cost-effective and risk-free setting, digital twins facilitate the interaction and merging of the physical and informational realms. The application of digital twins spans across different sectors, including aerospace, healthcare, smart manufacturing, and smart cities. As electric vehicles have experienced rapid growth, there is a growing demand for the development of innovative technologies. One potential area for digital twins application is within the automotive sector. The powertrain system of electric vehicles (EVs) consists of three parts, power source, power electronic system, and electric motor, which are considered as the core components of electric vehicles. The focus of this paper is to conduct a methodical review regarding the use of digital twins in the powertrain of electric vehicles (EVs). While reviewing the development of digital twin technology, its main application scenarios and its use in electric vehicle powertrains are analysed. Finally, the digital twins currently encounter several challenges that need to be addressed, and so the future development of their application to electric vehicles are summarized.
