Digital Twins for Autonomous Operations and Maintenance of Offshore Renewable Devices based on Multi-access Edge Computing

为了实现可持续的未来，世界能源最终需要实现可再生。这是一个严重的问题，我个人对此非常关注。通过降低海上设备的寿命成本，我相信这将对国家的财政能力产生重大影响，以生产更多的风力发电场和其他可再生能源。考虑到运营和维护占寿命成本的四分之一，这将是一个需要克服的重要挑战，并为机器人和自主系统提供了完美的应用，以提供对结构状况和性能的快速和具有成本效益的分析。

For a sustainable future, the world's energy source will eventually need to become renewable. This is a serious issue, which I personally have much concern for. By lowering the lifetime costs of offshore devices, I believe this will have a significant impact on the nation's financial capability, to produce more wind farms and other renewable alternatives. Considering that the Operation and maintenance makes up to a quarter of the lifetime costs, this will be an important challenge to overcome, and provides a perfect application for robotics and autonomous systems, to deliver rapid and cost-effective analysis of the structure's condition and performance.
