It highlights the modeling of natural gas leakage and dispersion dynamics, especially from a digital twin implementation perspective facilitating effective emergency response in a data-driven way. Methods In this study, a digital twin-based emergency response framework for gas leakage accidents in urban utility tunnels is proposed. Within this framework, the data-calibrated gas concentration prediction (DC-GCP) model is developed by integrating the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) with data assimilation (DA) techniques. This combination enables accurate spatiotemporal predictions of gas concentrations, even with a prior or inaccurate gas leakage source term. Specifically, we develop a high-performance LBM-based gas concentration prediction model using the parallel programming language Taichi Lang. Based on this model, real-time integration of gas sensor data from utility tunnels is achieved through the DA algorithm. Therefore, the predicted results can be calibrated by the continuous data in the absence of complete source term information. Furthermore, a widely used twin experiment and statistical performance measures (SPMs) are used to evaluate and validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Results The results show that all SPMs progressively converge towards their ideal values as calibration progresses. And both the gas concentration predictions and the source term estimations can be calibrated effectively by the proposed approach, achieving a relative error of less than 5%. Conclusions This study helps for dynamic risk assessment and emergency response of natural gas leakage accidents, as well as facilitating the implementation of predictive digital twin in utility tunnels.","PeriodicalId":29831,"journal":{"name":"Digital Twin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141828507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In view of the complex operating conditions of the system, there are a large number of opaque links in the mechanism, and the anomaly detection approach based on physical mechanism modeling is prone to system errors due to assumptions, simplification, and transfer in the modeling process. This paper focuses on digital twin based data-driven approaches for power system anomaly detection to compensate for the limitation of physical methods in dynamical modeling. Methods: First of all, a digital twin framework for power system real-time analysis is constructed based on the concept of digital twin. Then, this paper conducts researches on the core of the designed framework, i.e., digital twin modeling. Considering the complexity of power system operating conditions, data-driven modeling is preferred and a random matrix and free probability theory based model for anomaly detection of system operating situation is constructed. Results: Simulation data with different spatiotemporal structure generated through a Monte Carlo experiment verified the sensitivity of the constructed model for data correlations. Meanwhile, the case on the system operating data generated through the IEEE 118-bus system validate the effectiveness of the proposed model for the system anomaly detection. Conclusions: The constructed data-driven model can accurately characterize the correlations among data elements, has good sensitivity to the variation of data spatial and temporal correlations, and can depict the data residuals better than the M-P law curve, which indicates the practicability and necessity of the constructed data-driven model for the digital twin modeling of power system anomaly detection.","PeriodicalId":29831,"journal":{"name":"Digital Twin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140715440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current approaches for noise monitoring in manufacturing are based on acoustic sensors, whose measured sound pressure levels (SPL) are shown as bar/curve charts and acoustic heat maps. In such a way, the noise emission and propagation process is not fully addressed. This paper proposes a digital twin (DT) for noise monitoring in manufacturing using augmented reality (AR) and the phonon tracing method (PTM). In the proposed PTM/AR-based DT, the noise is represented by 3D particles (called phonons) emitting and traversing in a spatial domain. Using a mobile AR device (HoloLens 2), users are able to visualize and interact with the noise emitted by machine tools. To validate the feasibility of the proposed PTM/AR-based DT, two use cases are carried out. The first use case is an offline test, where the noise data from a machine tool are first acquired and used for the implementation of PTM/AR-based DT with different parameter sets. The result of the first use case is the understanding between the AR performance of HoloLens 2 (frame rate) and the setting of the initial number of phonons and sampling frequency. The second use case is an online test to demonstrate the in-situ noise monitoring capability of the proposed PTM/AR-based DT. The result shows that our PTM/AR-based DT is a powerful tool for visualizing and assessing the real-time noise in manufacturing systems.","PeriodicalId":29831,"journal":{"name":"Digital Twin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140369480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, we propose a comprehensive approach to the modeling cross-scale human activity in digital twin workshop, which comprises macro activity and micro activity. Macro activity contains human’s occupation and spatial positions in workshop, while micro activity refers to real-time posture and production actions at work. In this paper, we build and integrate macro activity digital twin model and micro activity digital twin model. With the combination of closed-loop interaction between virtual models and physical entities, we achieve semantic mapping and control of production activities, thereby facilitating practical management of human activity in workshop.

In this study, we propose, for the first time, a method to automate the construction of multi-layered and multi-component heat transfer models by using a general computational model based on non-steady-state single-phase structural modules. This method enables the automated generation of complex multi-layered and multi-component heat transfer models, thereby achieving the construction of a generalized model for temperature field characterization with varying wellbore cross-sectional structures over ultra-long distances.

Jiang, Jiangxin Yang","doi":"10.12688/digitaltwin.17863.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.12688/digitaltwin.17863.1","url":null,"abstract":"Background: In mass production, engineers are more concerned with the statistical distribution accuracy of parts in mass production rather than just the qualification of individual parts. However, currently, the statistical analysis methods designed for product accuracy are relatively scattered, and most of them focus on nominal part models. Therefore, there is a need to design a statistical analysis method for parts in mass production based on the Digital Twin model. Methods: This paper presents a novel method to analyse the geometric variations of parts in batch production in the production line, which is based on digital twins to model and evaluate deviations contributed by the geometrical condition, assembly condition and material condition. Firstly, the statistical descriptions of the parts, particularly the features of a digital twin for parts in batch production related to the geometry and position, are classified into various hierarchies. Secondly, a covariance method is employed to analyse the law of their shape from the descriptions. Thirdly, the parts' shape feature similarity for different terms is derived, including the linear features of pose constraint, rotation deviation, and geometric deviation and the curve features like a geometric deviation. Finally, the probability distribution of discrete points on the manufacturing error caused by different reasons is calculated. Results: Two case studies of reducer and rail highlight the applicability of the proposed approach. The standard deviation of the points has similar trend with sample cases according to normal distribution. Conclusions:  This paper categorizes the deviations of batch parts into the linear features of pose constraint, rotation deviation, and geometric deviation. When batch parts exhibit any of these deviation types, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of their covariance matrix show certain patterns, enabling the identification of the deviation type and calculation of the statistical deviation probability distribution for the corresponding features.","PeriodicalId":29831,"journal":{"name":"Digital Twin","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41832785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
