Digital Twins in Manufacturing: Revolutionizing the Future of Production In today’s era of Industry 4.0, digital twins are reshaping the way manufacturing systems are designed, monitored, and optimized. A digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical system, process, or product, updated in real-time with data from sensors and IoT devices. By mirroring the real world in a digital environment, manufacturers gain valuable insights to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and drive innovation. What is a Digital Twin? A digital twin is more than just a 3D model or simulation. It integrates real-time data, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and advanced analytics to simulate behavior, predict outcomes, and optimize operations. In manufacturing, digital twins can represent machines, production lines, supply chains, or even entire factories. Applications in Manufacturing Product Design and Development Engineers can test virtual prototypes before building physical ones, reducing des...
CONTROL STATEMENTS Till now we know that the code in the C program is executed sequentially from the first line of the program to its last line. That is, the second statement is executed after the first, the third statement is executed after the second, so on and so forth. Although this is true, in some cases we want only selected statements to be executed. Control flow statements enable programmers to conditionally execute a particular block of code. There are three types of control statements: decision control (branching), iterative (looping), and jump statements. While branching means deciding what actions have to be taken, looping, on the other hand, decides how many times the action has to be taken. Jump statements transfer control from one point to another point. Decision Control Statements C supports decision control statements that can alter the flow of a sequence of instructions. These statements help to jump from one part of the program to another depending on whether a parti...
