Why did we name the blog “Equilibrium of Things”?
Today, a lot of attention is directed to the Internet of Things, Industry 4.0 and the Digital Twin. These buzzwords describe interesting concepts for our everyday life and for the control of processes in industries. But when you want to connect them with material that changes its state, things become really complicated.
