Innovative Developments of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus in the Field of Drive Mechanics. Part 1. Model Approach and Application of Digital Twins

Abstract

The article considers innovative developments in the field of drive mechanics of the Joint Institute of Mechanical Engineering of the NAS of Belarus in cooperation with the V.A. Belyi Metal Polymer Research Institute of the NAS of Belarus and other organizations. The main attention is paid to the results noted in the TOP-10 competition of the NAS of Belarus, in which the creative team of specialists of the Joint Institute of Mechanical Engineering of the NAS of Belarus and the V.A. Belyi Metal Polymer Research Institute of the NAS of Belarus became the winner, as well as the monograph “Gears and transmissions in Belarus: design, technology, evaluation of properties”, which became a prize-winner in the All-Russian competition named after Ivan Fedorov with international participation in 2020 in the nomination for the best publication on research work. New results obtained by the authors in 2020–2021 on the subject under consideration are also presented. The article includes the provisions of the “Industry 4.0” concept with an emphasis on the model approach and the use of digital twins of materials and products, the provisions of the lifetime mechanics of machines developed at the Joint Institute of Mechanical Engineering of the NAS of Belarus, and the developed architectonics of the drive information model.
