Abstract of the Talk:
Building digital twins (DTs) of engineering systems and processes is a real challenge. While the potential offered by DTs in designing, monitoring and decision making is hugely appreciated by researchers, building a comprehensive DT requires a strongly multidisciplinary approach. This lecture will discuss the definitions, classifications, and challenges of constructing a DT. The talk will try to define DTs suitable for engineering applications. The discussion will also focus on the availability or lack of tools for building DTs. In addition, the talk will also cover various topics such as data, AI, and physics-based models. Finally, the lecture will use some energy and healthcare examples to provide context to the DTs.

Choose between IELTS, GRE ,TOEFL and PTE
Do you dream of an international degree? Qualifying an English Language Proficiency Test is the initial step towards your dream. Having an array of standardised language tests to choose from, such as IELTS, GRE, TOEFL, PTE etc., students are often perplexed to reach a decision. The test you give depends on many factors; the country you prefer to move to, the university you have applied for, and the course you have enrolled in. An accurate understanding of each language test is therefore essential to make your journey easier.
The office of International Relations and Higher Studies at SRM University-AP is organising a webinar: Lecture on Training Programmes: IELTS vs GRE vs TOEFL vs PTE as part of the Higher Education Series to educate students on the purpose of different language tests. Each test has a different pattern, grading structure, and testing method. The lecture intends to throw light into the distinct features of each test and the learning approaches they require.
Become a part of the workshop and learn to ace any English language test.
