Test Twins - Digital Twins for the Product Development Process

Victoria Velavicius

Presentation by Alvaro Everlet, VP Business Development at Altair.

Digital Twins of test equipment help align physical simulation (lab testing) and virtual simulation (CAE). While typical CAE models make assumptions about the physical simulation initial conditions and the operational environment during testing, a Digital Twin accurately reproduces test activity and can predict future states to determine fixture or product failures. The twin will also ensure test set up is repeatable and robust through an improved understanding of system sensitivities.
