Engineering based on information models

Digital twins are virtual representations of physical systems and processes. They offer in-depth insights into their real counterparts through simulations, real-time data acquisition, and asset-specific documentation. This technology opens up new perspectives for industry, particularly in minimizing risks and costs while increasing efficiency.

Together with my colleagues in the IDEAS research group, I am investigating the areas of application of digital twins and their added value in industrial use. My focus is on using standardized information models (e.g. Asset Administration Shell, AAS) in the engineering process of large industrial plants. Particularly in regulated industrial sectors (pharmaceuticals, process industry, etc.), new plants and plant modifications can be planned in detail in advance with the help of digital twins and checked concerning the requirements set. This can significantly reduce the time required for certification processes and commissioning.
