Digital Twin technology gives Orient Express Racing Team & K-Challenge the edge for America’s Cup

This America’s Cup team uses Siemens Xcelerator software to create a digital twin to simulate hydraulics and aeronautic systems of the yacht in the water through virtual and immersive experiences
Working in close collaboration with Siemens’ Simcenter Engineering Services, Orient Express Racing Team is gaining an understanding of real-world performance of the hydraulic flight and aeronautic systems that control sails and rudder/foil flaps actuation. Digital twins of these systems have been built, parameterized and functionally validated, along with dedicated libraries, that help ensure the layout and interface are comprehensive and easy to operate in a multi-disciplinary team effort spanning the Performance, Mechatronic and Hydraulic groups.
