Abstract This article describes the design and the development of a novel six-legged robotic walking machine named SphereWalker. The six legs are arranged into pairs, and each pair of legs is supported and actuated by a single spherical four-bar mechanism. Two of the four-bar mechanisms are operated in a synchronous fashion, while the middle one is operated at 180 deg out of phase with respect to the other two. A physical prototype has been built, a digital twin has been generated, an actuation and control system has been designed, and the technology has been patented.

This paper presents an application of an open architecture control system implemented on a multi-axis wood computer numerical control milling machining center, as a digital twin control. The development of the digital twin control system was motivated by research and educational requirements, especially in the field of configuring a new control system by “virtual commissioning”, enabling the validation of the developed controls, program verification, and analysis of the machining process and monitoring. The considered wood computer numerical control (CNC) machining system is supported by an equivalent virtual machine in a computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) environment, as well as in the control system, as a digital twin. The configured virtual machines are used for the verification of the machining program and programming system via machining simulation, which is extremely important in multi-axis machining. Several test wood workpieces were machined to validate the effectiveness of the developed control system based on LinuxCNC.

The digital twins technology delivers a new degree of freedom into system implementation and maintenance practice. Using this approach, a technological system can be efficiently modeled and simulated. Furthermore, such a twin offline system can be efficiently used to investigate real system issues and improvement opportunities, e.g., improvement of the existing control system or development of a new one. This work describes the development of a control system using the digital twins methodology for a gas system delivering a specific mixture of gases to the time-of-flight (ToF) multipurpose detector (MPD) used during high-energy physics experiments in the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (Dubna, Russia). The gas system digital twin was built using a test stand and further extended into target full-scale installation planned to be built in the near future. Therefore, conducted simulations are used to validate the existing system and to allow validation of the planned new system. Moreover, the gas system digital twin enables testing of new control opportunities, improving the operation of the target gas system.

Abstract The control performance of the control system directly affects the running performance of the product. In order to solve the problem that the dynamics characteristics of mechanical systems are affected by the performance degradation of the controller, a digital twin-driven proportion integration differentiation (PID) controller tuning method for dynamics is proposed. In this paper, first, the structure and operation mechanism of the digital twin model for PID controller tuning are described. Using the advantages of virtual real mapping and data fusion of the digital twin model, combined with the online identification of the controlled object model, the problems of real-time feedback of an actual control effect of the controller and the unreal virtual model of the control system caused by time-varying working conditions are effectively solved, and the closed-loop self-tuning of PID controller is realized. At the same time, intelligent optimization algorithm is integrated to improve the efficiency and accuracy of PID controller parameter tuning. Second, the modeling method of the digital twin model is described from three aspects of physical prototyping, twin service system, and virtual prototyping. Finally, the controller tuning for gear transmission stability is taken as an example to verify the practicability of the proposed method.
