“…They elaborated that a digital twin provides continuous monitoring and simulation for all system components, including those in 2 of 6 inaccessible or sensitive zones. Setting extreme allowable values to verify compliance by the digital twin enables the identification of instrumentation failures and inconsistencies [5], [6].…”

Like any other measuring device, load cells are vital in ensuring that products meet quality and safety requirements; therefore, they must always be accurate and reliable. Creep affects measurement results and the useful life of load cells but is not well understood. Digital twins create a virtual representation of an instrument that can be used to understand, monitor, and predict load cell behaviour. This study found that the significant source of creep originates from the strain gauge's carrier matrix and that the Larson-Miller Parameter equation can be used to support the digital twin development of the load cell.

Geotechnical properties can evolve throughout the design life of a structure due to actions imposed during installation, the operational life or late and end of life management of an asset. Whole life geotechnical design seeks to predict soil-structure responses across the design life by considering the whole life of imposed actions coupled with geotechnical properties that evolve with each action. In contrast, traditional geotechnical design considers the ‘worst case’ single value of minimum resistance or stiffness coupled with the ‘worst case’ single value of maximum action over the design life. The emerging philosophy of whole life geotechnical design checks limit states at different stages of the ‘whole life’ against ‘current’ geotechnical properties, updated based on the processes that have occurred and the responses that have accumulated earlier in the design life. Consideration of whole life geotechnical response provides greater insight, enabling forecasting of the response of a supported structure through and beyond its design life. Insights can be applied at the initial design stage for optimal sizing; through life for assessing or predicting cumulative displacements or changes in resistance, and assumptions in the initial design against observed performance. By extension, these insights can be used to predict actual remaining design life; for re-lifing or re-purposing; and decommissioning. This paper presents the overarching philosophy of whole life geotechnical design, theory underpinning the evolution of geotechnical properties, derivation of the appropriate parameters, and some applications. This paper demonstrates the potential of whole life design, particularly to the emerging opportunities of offshore renewable energy infrastructure.

This study proposes a virtual monitoring method for hydraulic supports based on digital twin theory. This method includes an information model, which monitors the attitudes of the hydraulic supports using an information fusion algorithm. This is combined with a virtual digital model that simulates the actual hydraulic support. Important technological aspects of the monitoring system were achieved at the real-virtual interface, which digitizes and modularizes the management and connection processes of the hydraulic supports over its entire life cycle. Finally, experiments were conducted and the real-time virtual images were synchronized with the actual motion of the support within one second, and the error range between the virtual and actual support postures did not exceed 1%. This study demonstrates the potential of this novel combined approach to make it possible to effectively monitor and make decisions regarding the safe and efficient operation of mechanized mine equipment that employ hydraulic supports.
