Цифровой двойник здания vs bim-модель: в чём разница и зачем это эксплуатации

В индустрии проектирования, строительства и управления недвижимостью сегодня много говорят о «цифровизации», «информационном моделировании», о использования в работе «BIM / ТИМ — моделей», о формировании «Цифрового двойника (Digital Twin)».

От того, на каких слоях будут проложены сигналы, размещены полигоны питания и «земли», зависит не только помехоустойчивость, но и то, насколько легко плату будет изготовить, проконтролировать и, если потребуется, отремонтировать после пайки.На нашем производстве мы регулярно сталкиваемся с проектами, где внешние и внутренние слои используются Read more
