20.500.12556/DKUM-88420 Exploring digital twins in the transport and energy fields a bibliometrics and literature review approach Logistics and transport are major sources of energy consumption that still rely heavily on fossil fuels. Especially in the freight sector, finding means to optimise fuel consumption and energy efficiency are increasingly important. Digital twins’ adaptation in logistics and transport is not as frequent as in production, but their implementation potential is immense. This technology can replicate real environments, allowing verification of various scenarios without real-life application, leading to optimal implementation outcome faster and more efficiently. This paper aims to research digital twins’ use in logistics and transport, focusing on digital twins’ potential and effects to optimise energy consumption. Firstly, previous research on digital twins in specified fields was identified, followed by a quantitative literature review. The latter focused on codifying the selected publications based on criteria such as modality, specific environment, energy consumption, etc. Furthermore, a qualitative overview of 57 relevant publications on digital twins’ use in logistics and transport was made. The main contribution of this paper is the systematic overview of digital twins from the viewpoint of energy optimisation in one of the most energy-dependent sectors. This gives researchers a good starting point for further research and digital twins’ practical implementation cases. logistics transport digital twin energy consumption optimisation literature review bibliometrics logistika transport digitalni dvojniki poraba energije optimizacija pregled literature bibliometrika true false true MDPI Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Znanstveno delo 2024-04-22 11:11:04 2024-04-22 11:17:12 2024-04-23 03:12:32 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2023 0 0 Str. 1-23 Št. 9, št. članka 3922 Letn. 16 May 2023 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2023-04-03 2023-05-04 2023-05-06 656.1/.5:004.738.5 151354883 10.3390/en16093922 1996-1073 Kajba-2023-Exploring_Digital_Twins_in_the_Tran.pdf Kajba-2023-Exploring_Digital_Twins_in_the_Tran.pdf 1 B4268089C46ED08DCFDA8EBE2D4A5E56 38797ff7358c025b7e96c72eac8ac9ce22383dc4e108e9901db3d3f5fa70de6a ed4fa5fa-0088-11ef-a521-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=178820 https://doi.org/10.3390/en16093922 0 41a49933-0088-11ef-a521-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=178819 Fakulteta za logistiko 0 0 0
