Exploring digital twin dynamics: an analysis of structure configurations
Melo, Victoria; Barbosa, José; Pires, Flávia; Prieta Pintado, Fernando De la; Leitão, PauloDigital twin (DT) is an important technology to support the realization of the digital transformation, connecting the physical asset to its virtual copy and fostering real-time monitoring, simulation, and decision-support. However, the benefits of DT depend on its intended purpose and application, which is impacted by the design structure configuration that is used for its implementation. This paper discusses t...
Design of an ISO 23247 Compliant Digital Twin for an Automotive Assembly Line
Melo, Victoria; Barbosa, José; Mota, Gonçalo; Prieta Pintado, Fernando De la; Leitão, PauloThe integration of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies is transforming various society sectors, and particularly the manufacturing sector, promoting a digital transformation that fosters smart and interconnected systems. The Digital Twin (DT) acts as a key component in the digital transformation landscape and its integration with I4.0 technologies paves the way for the implementation of Zero Defect Manufacturing s...
Positioning Cyber-Physical Systems and Digital Twins in Industry 4.0
Pires, Flávia; Melo, Victoria; Queiroz, Jonas; Moreira, António Paulo G. M.; Prieta Pintado, Fernando De la; Estevez, Elisabet; Leitão, PauloIndustry 4.0 has brought innovative concepts and technologies that have greatly improved the development of more intelligent, flexible and reconfigurable systems. Two of these concepts, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) and Digital Twins (DTs), have gained significant attention from various stakeholders, e.g., researchers, industry practitioners, and governmental organizations. Both are vital to support the digital...
IoT-based solution to reduce waste and promote a sustainable farming industry
Stefanuto, Bruno; Funchal, Gustavo Silva; Melo, Victoria; Mendes, Andre C.; Raimundo, Délio; Gouveia, Hélia; Coelho, João Paulo; Leitão, PauloWaste and the necessity to increase sustainability in the farming industry are some of the challenges addressed in the agri-food chain. With the potential of digital technologies, e.g., the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence, to revolutionize agriculture by enabling more efficient and intelligent monitoring, system architecture and IoT nodes were developed to support relevant parameters for co...
Alignment of digital twin systems with the RAMI 4.0 model using multi-agent sys...
Melo, Victoria; Prieta Pintado, Fernando De la; Leitão, PauloThe Digital Twin approach has emerged in the Industry 4.0 context to perform the design, virtual commissioning and optimization of processes and machines, considering the simulation model feed with real-time data, and articulated with AI data-driven algorithms to extract value and knowledge. The digital Twin can be seen as a way to proceed with the digitalization of production assets, covering the layers dimens...
An intrusion detection system dataset for a multi-agent cyber-physical conveyor...
Funchal, Gustavo Silva; Zahid, Farzana; Melo, Victoria; Kuo, Matthew M.Y.; Pedrosa, Tiago; Sinha, Roopak; Prieta Pintado, Fernando De la; Leitão, PauloIndustry 4.0 is built upon the foundation of connecting devices and systems via Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, with Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) serving as the backbone infrastructure. Although this approach brings numerous benefits like improved performance, responsiveness and reconfigurability, it also introduces security concerns, making devices and systems vulnerable to cyber attacks. There is a nee...
