This continuous loop is what sets digital twins apart from traditional simulation. Traditional simulations are often run offline, using static assumptions.

Architecting a Living Model: How Digital Twins Work

To understand the power of continuous simulation, it 's helpful to breake down thee core contents of a digital twin ecosystem. At it heart, a digital twin consists of a physical asset, its digital represention, and the bi- directional data flow between them. Thee digital model is built frem CAD data, conteering drawings, historical performance logs, and physimulations (such as finit element analysis or computtational fluid dynamics).
