Abstract

This work aims to investigate the role of the resilience of Digital Twins on the applicability of the transportation system. A literature study is conducted to review the current status of research on transportation systems and Digital Twins. It is found that the current research on Digital Twins technology has achieved different degrees of success in different aspects of transportation systems. Yet, the system performance of Digital Twins has to be optimized. First, the application of Digital Twins in intelligent transportation systems is analyzed. Then, how the changes in traveler behavior patterns reflect the extent to which the traffic network is affected by uncertain events is analyzed from the traveler's perspective. Finally, an Internet of Vehicles (IoV) system based on Digital Twins and blockchain is established to solve the data redundancy and high computational volume problems of in-vehicle data sharing common in the IoV system. Moreover, the performance of the twin system is optimized by proposing a multi-intelligence body algorithm based on local perception, and a case validation is performed. The results demonstrate that the adaptability of the transportation system to uncertain events and its response and recovery measures taken are reflected to some extent in the traveler behavior model. Besides, data sharing between vehicles and infrastructure in the transportation network can be well solved by Digital Twins Blockchain. The locally-aware multi-intelligent body algorithm saves more than 50% communication overhead and improves operational efficiency by nearly 20% over traditional algorithms by increasing intelligent body infrastructure units. It is adequately suited for large-scale vehicle traffic twins. It can be seen that improving the resilience of Digital Twins is a very obvious change in the adaptability of the traffic system.
