This article presents a comprehensive overview of the digital twin technology and its capability levels, with specific focus on applications in wind energy industry. It consolidates definitions levels scale from 0-5; 0-standalone, 1-descriptive, 2-diagnostic, 3-predictive, 4-prescriptive, 5-autonomous. then, an industrial perspective, identifies current state art research needs sector. is concluded that main challenges hindering realization highly capable twins fall into one four categories;...
Abstract In modern analysis pipelines, Einstein-Boltzmann Solvers (EBSs) are an invaluable tool for obtaining CMB and matter power spectra. To significantly accelerate the computation of these observables, CosmicNet strategy is to replace usual bottleneck EBS, which integration a system differential equations linear cosmological perturbations, by trained neural networks. This offers several advantages compared direct emulation final including very small networks that easy train in...

Abstract The demand for condition-based and predictive maintenance is rising across industries, especially remote, high-value, high-risk assets. In this article, the diagnostic digital twin concept introduced, discussed, implemented a floating offshore turbine. A virtual representation of an asset that combines real-time data models to monitor damage, detect anomalies, diagnose failures, thereby enabling maintenance. By applying twins assets, unexpected failures can be alleviated, but...
Digital twins are becoming increasingly popular across many industries for real-time data streaming, processing, and visualization. They allow stakeholders to monitor, diagnose, optimize assets. Emerging technologies used immersive visualization, such as virtual reality, open new possibilities intuitive access monitoring of remote assets through digital twins. This is specifically relevant floating wind farms, where often limited. However, the integration from multiple sources different...
