August 11, 2021 — A new tool that simulates the energy profile of every building in America will give homeowners, utilities and companies a quick way to determine energy use and cost-effective retrofits that can reduce energy and carbon emissions. Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a modeling program […]
Digital Twin Consortium and Object Management Group to Discuss Space Mission IT Challenges at IEEE Conference
July 15, 2021 by
Boston – July 15, 2021 – Digital Twin Consortium and Object Management Group (OMG) announced they will present mini-workshops during the 8th IEEE International Conference on Space Mission Challenges for Information Technology (SMC-IT 2021), which runs virtually from July 26-30, 2021. Space missions are leveraging digital twins for many applications, from in-space additive manufacturing to using augmented reality in microgravity […]
Project BreathEasy using Digital Twins of Lungs to Improve COVID-19 Patient Outcomes
April 14, 2020 by
OnScale and LEXMA have partnered to create patient-specific digital twins that may accurately predict oxygen and blood flow in a patient’s lungs, helping doctors make critical decisions about ventilator and intubation requirements for COVID-19 patients. Each digital twin is patient-specific and built from a combination of medical images (for example from CT scans and X-rays) and thousands of simulations of lung airflow and blood flow using the LEXMA Moebius fluid dynamics solver running on OnScale’s Cloud Simulation platform.
Advancing manufacturing with simulation-based digital twins
June 28, 2019 by
The concept of a digital twin—the mirroring of a physical object with a virtual object created by simulation-based engineering—has been around since NASA began using numerical simulation technology and comparing the results to ground-based physical models as it developed and managed early spacecraft. “Today, digital twins are hot—a subject of intense interest and investment. Gartner puts digital twins fourth on its list of the top 10 strategic technology trends for 2019.”
