Digital Twins for Manufacturing Processes and Equipment
Assistant Professor of Digital Manufacturing at University College Dublin
Dublin, Ireland
About
I build digital twins that mirror manufacturing processes and equipment, combining physics-based simulation with live data so that operators and engineers can monitor, optimise and test changes before making them on the line.
What I can offer to a Doctoral Network:
-
Digital twin architectures linking simulation models to real process and sensor data
-
Virtual commissioning, what-if analysis and process optimisation
-
Model updating and calibration as processes and equipment evolve
-
Doctoral training that spans modelling, data engineering and industrial deployment
Ideal partners: groups working in advanced manufacturing, equipment and instrumentation, robotics and industrial IoT who want digital twins that are genuinely connected to their operations.
