Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive framework for implementing digital twins in aircraft lifecycle management, with a focus on using data-driven models to enhance decision-making and operational efficiency. The proposed framework integrates cutting-edge technologies such as IoT sensors, big data analytics, machine learning, 6G communication, and cloud computing to create a robust digital twin ecosystem. This paper explores the key components of the framework, including lifecycle phases, new technologies, and models for digital twins. It discusses the challenges of creating accurate digital twins during aircraft operation and maintenance and proposes solutions using emerging technologies. The framework incorporates physics-based, data-driven, and hybrid models to simulate and predict aircraft behavior. Supporting components like data management, federated learning, and analytics tools enable seamless integration and operation. This paper also examines decision-making models, a knowledge-driven approach, limitations of current implementations, and future research directions. This holistic framework aims to transform fragmented aircraft data into comprehensive, real-time digital representations that can enhance safety, efficiency, and sustainability throughout the aircraft lifecycle.
