Digital Twin Framework for Built Environment: A Review of Key Enablers

Giuseppe Piras,
Sofia Agostinelli,
Francesco Muzi

Abstract: The emergence of Digital Twin (DT) technology presents unique opportunities for society by facilitating real-time data transfer from the physical environment to its digital counterpart. Although progress has been made in various industry sectors such as aerospace, the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operation (AECO) sector still requires further advancements, like the adoption of these technologies over traditional approaches. The use of these technologies should become standard practice rather th… Show more

“…Integrating the information on the impact of complex terrain phenomenon with machine learning [i.e. Dujardin and Lehning (2022)] and Digital Twin and its integration to Geographical Information System (GIS) (Agostinelli et al, 2022;Yousef et al, 2023;Piras et al, 2024) will also increase the accuracy of monitoring and performance prediction of wind turbines. The present research acts as a step forward in accurately estimating potential wind power and optimally using it for renewable energy production, particularly during periods when it is most needed, i.e., the winter season when power demand is high and other renewable sources are limited.…”
