Transformative Digital Air Vehicle with IoT Sensors for Safer Urban Skies (AVATAR)

AVATAR致力于开发数字孪生平台，以便在车辆使用寿命期间对车辆进行持续监控，从而实现预测性维护。AVATAR的数字孪生模型与真实的结构并行运作，并在必要时提供偏离预期（模拟）的操作行为的早期预警。此外，通过记录每个飞行器在每次飞行过程中经历的实际载荷谱，它将优化每个飞行器的使用寿命，这有助于实现可持续的空中机动性。AVATAR将有助于提高城市天空的安全性，并有可能通过为每辆车提供真实的负载数据来优化飞行器的设计和性能。AVATAR提出的物联网传感皮肤是实时关键操作信息获取和物理飞机与数字飞机之间通过无线通信连接的关键推动因素。AVATAR DT平台将提供物联网，大数据和机器学习的无缝集成，以收集，计算和预测。AVATAR将遵循基于不同类型数据和先进分析方法开发数字孪生模型的现代方法，消除了直接连接真实的飞行器和虚拟模型的需要，并通过ML和AI建立这种连接。AVATAR有助于加速空中交通的数字化转型，特别是在城市环境中。

AVATAR is dedicated to developing a digital twin platform to enable continuous monitoring of the vehicle during its service life for the purpose predictive maintenance. AVATAR’s digital twin model acts in parallel to the real structure and provides, where necessary, an early warning of operational behaviour that deviates from expected (simulated). Additionally, by recording the actual load spectrum that each air vehicle experiences during every flight, it will optimize the individual service life, which contributes towards a sustainable air mobility. AVATAR’s will contribute to an increase safety of urban skies and has the potential to optimise the design and performance of air vehicles by providing real load data for each vehicle. The IoT sensing skin proposed by AVATAR is a key enabler for real-time critical operational information acquisition and connectivity between the physical aircraft and the digital counterpart through wireless communication. AVATAR DT platform will provide a seamless integration of IoT, big data and machine learning to collect, compute and predict. AVATAR will conform to the modern approach towards developing a digital twin based on different types of data and advanced analytical methods which eliminates the need for the real air vehicle and the virtual models to be directly connected and builds this connection through ML and AI. AVATAR contributes to the acceleration of digital transformation of air mobility, particularly in urban setting.
