Digital Twins

The Fourth Industrial Revolution is a term used to describe the current era of technological advancements, especially those focused on digitalization. One of the key features are Digital Twins (DTs). They are virtual representations of physical objects, systems, or processes.

This project will focus on the development of DTs of membranes and membrane processes. High performance computing (HPC) resources of the National (Portuguese) Network for Advanced Computing, attributed by grant 2023.00015.CPCA.A1 (Improving and understanding membrane processes performance through CFD simulations), will be used to perform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations at such DTs of membranes and membrane processes in order to gain a better understanding of their behavior, optimize their operation, and predict and prevent potential issues before they occur.
