Altair: Managing the Data Twin and the Physics Twin
Using a digital twin in the design process has enabled engineers to refine product designs through models and simulations. Most digital twin systems are centered around modeling the operation of a product, but Altair has a different perspective that incorporates two separate digital twins. Altair’s Digital Twin Concept Altair takes a two-pronged approach to implementing the digital twin. The first …

3DEXPERIENCE Twin – A Manufacturing Perspective
In the past 18 months, the manufacturing industry has experienced a number of powerful disruptors. Between uncertainty in product demand, disruption in the supply chain, and new social distancing norms, organizations have had to find ways to make their lines more flexible. 3DEXPERIENCE Twin is a digital twin that has broad applications from product design to manufacturing. In the context …
Digital twin and virtual twin, or physics-based simulation model, are both valuable in the world of engineering. They help us identify novel design solutions and take proactive action to mitigate risks. These are two separate, disconnected entities. But, what would happen if they were used together, reinforcing each other’s work? Let’s find out. The Hybrid Twin: Marrying Simulation and the …
