Lecture Review:

First of all, Professor Pan attracted students' attention by using micro and macro ceramic sintering pictures, introduced the main character of today's lecture - ceramics, and then extended to the theme of this lecture: digital twins in ceramic production. Professor Pan interacted with his classmates through cartoon dolls to vividly show the interaction between the two molecules in the sintering process. Through a series of scientific research pictures, he made everyone observe that ceramic molecules indeed have digital twins in the sintering process and confirmed the nature of digital twins.
