A Quality-Oriented Digital Twin Modelling Method for Manufacturing Processes Based on A Multi-Agent Architecture

Digital twin-enabled automated anomaly detection and bottleneck identification in complex manufacturing systems using a multi-agent approach

“…More recently, in the context of complex manufacturing systems, Latsou et al [26] developed a DT architecture integrated in a multi-agent CPMS where the DT represents the data flow for radio frequency identification (RFID) tagged products processed on a shop floor. Furthermore, Zheng et al [63] proposed a conceptual DT modelling method based on a multi-agent architecture to examine the factors influence the product quality during the manufacturing phase. A multi-agent system component and a semantic engineering component are integrated for the development of the DT approach.…”

RMPFQ: A Quality-Oriented Knowledge Modelling Method for Manufacturing Systems Towards Cognitive Digital Twins

“…To facilitate industrial applications, a semantic-driven digital twin architecture is designed based on the aforementioned application ontology and the proposed RMPFQ model. In a previous study (Zheng et al, 2020c), a multi-agent digital twin architecture for manufacturing processes using the MPFQ model has been proposed. The digital twin architecture in this study, as shown in Figure 6, is an extended version of the previous MPFQbased model.…”

Ontology-based system to support industrial system design for aircraft assembly

“…When the knowledge of aircraft assembly, e.g., an orbital joining process specification, is captured, it is necessary to analyze the relationships between frequently used classes for the knowledge instantiation. A RMPFQ (Resource, Material, Processes, Functions/Features, Quality) model (Zheng et al 2020b) is used to organize the relevant classes and specify their relationships. Besides, each of the operations requires relevant materials and resources to execute.…”
