Operationalizing Digital Twins Across Industries with Rob Foster

Épisode 5

jeudi 26 juin 2025 • Durée 01:00:05

In this episode of Smart Twins, host Jimmy Abualdenien is joined by Rob Foster, a global leader in digital twin strategy and co-founder of Geminum. With a career that spans mining, engineering, software development, and systems thinking, Rob brings a refreshingly candid and deeply experienced perspective to the world of digital twins.Rob shares the unlikely journey that led him from the Australian Army to global mining operations, and ultimately into software and digital twins. Drawing from years of hands-on work across industries, from deep-sea mining to AI-based safety solutions, Rob outlines why digital twins are more than technology buzzwords. They’re about solving real world problems.Jimmy and Rob dive into the practical side of digital twins: how to start small, iterate fast, and focus on value creation over flashy dashboards. Rob explains the difference between horizontal and vertical use cases, and why many large-scale twins fail by going too broad, too soon. He stresses the importance of human context in high-stakes environments like mining, where digital systems must support safety, collaboration, and decision making in real time.They also explore how digital twins can act as the connective tissue between siloed systems, remote teams, and even AI models, wrapping machine learning in guardrails to make it usable, explainable, and safe. Rob shares his vision for a future where digital twins and AI work hand-in-hand to enable autonomous operations, global collaboration, and better governance at scale.Rob wraps up the episode by introducing his new book, Designing Digital Twins, which distills years of experience into a practical guide for those building real-world solutions. He offers advice for teams just getting started and challenges listeners to stay grounded in the “why” behind the twin, ensuring each implementation delivers tangible value, not just technical ambition.

Deploying Digital Twins for Asset Reconstruction with Bart Brink

Épisode 4

jeudi 10 avril 2025 • Durée 40:23

In this episode of Smart Twins, host Jimmy Abualdenien is joined by Bart Brink, leader of the national renovation program for assets in infrastructure, housing and real estate in the Netherlands, and chair of the digital twin working group at buildingSMART International. Bart brings deep insight to their conversation as a national and global leader in the digital twin environment since 2017. Bart shares how he first encountered the world of digital twins and became passionate about better connecting the physical and digital worlds. From building bridges to planning cities, Bart sees the potential behind digital twins and is personally committed to driving the creation and optimizing of dynamic virtual representations of physical assets. Bart takes a step back and explains for listeners the essential definition of digital twins, and explores how that definition has evolved over time. Bart and Jimmy discuss the importance of a dynamic flow of information between the digital twin and the real life asset, and the value of looking beyond a single digital twin to create an ecosystem of digital twins. They also explore the critical consideration of how to safeguard data used to create a digital twin, taking into consideration how the owner maintains financial, operational and legal control of their data. Bart also emphasizes the importance of digital twins beyond just a replica or virtual representation. He lays out how digital twins can provide key insight for decision makers, and provide value creation by providing business insights. He stresses that the value of a digital twin is not just in analyzing data but in providing data for human interpretation to improve decision making. And he points out the value of digital twins beyond the individual, exploring the importance of governments creating an ecosystem that promotes a collective effort and communal reward from digital twins. Bart wraps up the conversation exploring how artificial intelligence can be paired with digital twins – to reinforce their productivity and make them even more accessible – and provides insight for those looking to pursue a digital twin.

Integrating BIM and Geotechnical Data with Maximillian Weiß

Épisode 3

jeudi 24 octobre 2024 • Durée 48:35

In this episode of Smart Twins, host Jimmy Abualdenien speaks with Maximillian Weiß, Head of BIM and Digital Construction at Deutsche Bahn, about the second core route project in Munich. Weiß leads the BIM GAS team responsible for this megaproject, which aims to ease the pressure on Munich’s public transport system by building a 7-kilometer tunnel with three new stations.Weiß shares his journey from studying geology at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) to working on major construction projects, including roads, bridges, and train stations. He discusses how his early work in critical foundation construction shaped his shift toward digitalization, specifically how Building Information Modeling (BIM) can improve workflows and solve complex construction challenges. Weiß explains how BIM was first introduced to him in 2016 and describes its use in the design and planning stages of the second core route project.The conversation dives deep into the challenges of building beneath Munich’s central station, maintaining ongoing train operations while constructing new infrastructure. Weiß also shares insights into using point clouds and LiDAR to digitize existing assets, combining 2D drawings with 3D models to improve accuracy.Listeners will hear about the significance of simulations in ensuring safety and optimizing passenger flow in new train stations, as well as the use of BIM in both the design and construction phases to keep the project on track. Weiß also touches on future uses of AI and digital twins in construction, offering a glimpse into how Deutsche Bahn is working to stay at the forefront of technological innovation.
