Buildings in the Digital Era : An Explorative Study of Digital Twins in the Built Environment

Kästel, Siw Kristine, Wallén, Joanna January 2024 (has links)
In recent years, digital twins (DT) have gained traction in enhancing operation and maintenance procedures across various industrial sectors, such as manufacturing, energy, and aerospace. Yet their utilization remains more limited in the built environment. The aim of this paper is to investigate the current conceptualizations of DTs within the context of the Swedish built environment, shedding light on the maturity of DTs for built assets and the key value drivers influencing their adoption. The study reveals that DTs for built assets are in early developmental stages, lacking the maturity required to encompass the full spectrum of attributes inherent in a conventional DT. Despite stakeholders labeling these initiatives as DTs, our findings indicate a closer alignment with the concept of BIM-based digital models. This observation resonates with existing literature, highlighting the absence of a universally accepted definition for DTs. Within the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) phase, we have identified the following four primary value drivers shaping the adoption of BIM-based DTs: 1) commercial transparency and trusted transactions, 2) efficiency and cost reduction in routine operations, 3) operational continuity, and 4) added services. These findings contribute to the ongoing discourse surrounding the convergence of BIM and DTs, offering insights into the practical implications and value propositions that drive the integration of these technologies within the built environment. / Under de senaste åren har användningen av digitala tvillingar (DT:ar) blivit allt vanligare för drift- och underhållsförfaranden inom olika industrisektorer, såsom tillverkning, energi och flyg- och rymdindustrin. Användningen är dock fortfarande begränsad inom bygg- och fastighetsbranschen. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka de nuvarande konceptualiseringarna av DT:ar inom ramen för den svenska fastighetsbranschen, belysa mognaden hos tekniken och undersöka de viktigaste värdedrivande faktorerna som påverkar utvecklingen och användningen i drift- och underhåll av fastigheter. Studien visar att användningen av DT:ar i fastighetsbranschen befinner sig i ett tidigt utvecklingsstadie och att begreppet inom industrin inte helt överensstämmer med visionen kring konceptet. Resultaten stämmer överens med befintlig litteratur, som belyser avsaknaden av en allmänt accepterad definition för DT:ar. I drift- och underhållsfasen har vi också identifierat följande fyra primära värdedrivande faktorer för användingen av BIM-baserade DT:ar: 1) kommersiell transparens och pålitliga transaktioner, 2) kostnadsbesparingar i rutinmässigt drift- och underhållsarbete, 3) kontinuerligt driftsarbete, samt 4) tilläggstjänster. Resultaten från denna studie bidrar till den pågående diskussionen om koncepten BIM och DT, och ger ytterligare insikt i de praktiska värdeskapande processerna och belyser användningsområden av DT:ar i fastighetsbranschen.

The Shades of Styles : A human search for words communicating all aspects of styles.

Hellerslien, Erlend January 2021 (has links)
This research is an investigative attempt on the concept of style´s development to potentially noticing our diverse human history on viewing the aspect of styles, starting (in the part one) by looking into the problem of the development of styles and its characteristic of representation in terms of its messages, realties, semiotics, and human collaboration. Leading towards the human search in seeing style more commonly neutral for a more meaningful dialog. The research shows then (in the part two) the potential to build a Digital Style Dictionary and A Digital Visual Compass: A Human-Centric Guide on The Aspect of Seeing Reality’s that can support identifying aspects of multiple realities (core reality, abstract reality, surreal reality and artificial reality) — where two cases (in the part three) of visual styles get analyzed, discussed, reframed, and presented (Transpace and Swisch). Fundamentally this paper looks to provoke a discussion on what we humans want the point to be in seeing styles. The complexity is as grand as our diversity, but still, this research highlights the hope to respectfully identify the distinctive shades of styles for the sake of a more significant human dialog and inclusion. The research´s grand ambition is knowingly bigger than what it itself can grasp to complete right now (2021) fully. It proposes an idea for the near future to shape a Digital Style Dictionary and a Digital Visual Compass that works for the common human aspect of seeing styles. This research is a first attempt towards shaping the fundamental frame towards a spectrum of the style´s, that we can respectfully continue to articulate for the sake to include better human communication on the aspect of seeing distinctiveness, not that style´s stands in a capital value program between something “high” or “low.” Instead, we can now start to collaborate in shaping and building these potential tools as A Digital Style Dictionary and A Digital Visual Compass in sharing a more human-centric spectrum of styles to push the human evolution of knowledge further.
