Planar Defects Ontology (PLDO) 0.0.1 definition The official definition, explaining the meaning of a class or property. Shall be Aristotelian, formalized and normalized. Can be augmented with colloquial definitions. 2012-04-05: Barry Smith The official OBI definition, explaining the meaning of a class or property: 'Shall be Aristotelian, formalized and normalized. Can be augmented with colloquial definitions' is terrible. Can you fix to something like: A statement of necessary and sufficient conditions explaining the meaning of an expression referring to a class or property. Alan Ruttenberg Your proposed definition is a reasonable candidate, except that it is very common that necessary and sufficient conditions are not given. Mostly they are necessary, occasionally they are necessary and sufficient or just sufficient. Often they use terms that are not themselves defined and so they effectively can't be evaluated by those criteria. On the specifics of the proposed definition: We don't have definitions of 'meaning' or 'expression' or 'property'. For 'reference' in the intended sense I think we use the term 'denotation'. For 'expression', I think we you mean symbol, or identifier. For 'meaning' it differs for class and property. For class we want documentation that let's the intended reader determine whether an entity is instance of the class, or not. For property we want documentation that let's the intended reader determine, given a pair of potential relata, whether the assertion that the relation holds is true. The 'intended reader' part suggests that we also specify who, we expect, would be able to understand the definition, and also generalizes over human and computer reader to include textual and logical definition. Personally, I am more comfortable weakening definition to documentation, with instructions as to what is desirable. We also have the outstanding issue of how to aim different definitions to different audiences. A clinical audience reading chebi wants a different sort of definition documentation/definition from a chemistry trained audience, and similarly there is a need for a definition that is adequate for an ontologist to work with.

Typically, the name of a Contributor should be used to indicate the entity. Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource. Examples of a Creator include a person, an organization, or a service. Typically, the name of a Creator should be used to indicate the entity. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource. Description may include but is not limited to: an abstract, a table of contents, a graphical representation, or a free-text account of the resource. Description An account of the resource. Title A name given to the resource. In current practice, this term is used primarily with literal values; however, there are important uses with non-literal values as well. As of December 2007, the DCMI Usage Board is leaving this range unspecified pending an investigation of options. The range of skos:altLabel is the class of RDF plain literals. skos:prefLabel, skos:altLabel and skos:hiddenLabel are pairwise disjoint properties. alternative label An alternative lexical label for a resource. Acronyms, abbreviations, spelling variants, and irregular plural/singular forms may be included among the alternative labels for a concept. Mis-spelled terms are normally included as hidden labels (see skos:hiddenLabel). example An example of the use of a concept. A general note, for any purpose. A resource has no more than one value of skos:prefLabel per language tag, and no more than one value of skos:prefLabel without language tag. The range of skos:prefLabel is the class of RDF plain literals. skos:prefLabel, skos:altLabel and skos:hiddenLabel are pairwise disjoint properties. preferred label The preferred lexical label for a resource, in a given language. The relation between a mixed grain boundary and the tilt grain boundary component. has tilt component The relation between a mixed grain boundary and the twist grain boundary component. has twist component The geometrical degrees of freedom are the parameters that are necessary to characterize a grain boundary. geometrical degrees of freedom A data property indicating the grain boundary (GB) plane using Miller Indices. has GB plane A data property indicating the misorientation angle (θ) of the grains with respect to each other. has misorientation angle A data property indication the rotation axis [uvw]. has rotation axis A data property linking a GB with its sigma value. Sigma value of a GB is the coincidence index, calculated as the coincidence unit cell volume by the crystal primitive unit cell volume. The coincidence index refers to the Coincidence Site Lattice (CSL). has sigma value There are five macroscopic degrees of freedom (DOFs) that are sufficient to describe the thermodynamic description of the grain boundary. In simulations of grain boundaries, the macroscopic DOFs are imposed on the structure. macroscopic degrees of freedom The microscopic degrees of freedom (DOFs) refer to the translation of one crystal with respect to the other at the microscopic scale. The microscopic parameters result from the relaxation process and are not independent of the macroscopic parameters. In simulations of grain boundaries, the microscopic DOFs are obtained after the grain boundary energy minimization. microscopic degrees of freedom An antiphase boundary is a planar defect which occurs in ordered alloys. The boundary separates two domains of the same ordered phase. Antiphase Boundary APB A grain boundary is a planar defect that separates two crystals (or grains) of the same material. Grain Boundary GB A low angle GB is a grain boundary with a misorientation angle lower than 15 degrees. ISBN 978-94-007-4968-9 Low Angle Grain Boundary Low-Angle Grain Boundary A mixed grain boundary is a grain boundary where the [uvw] rotation axis has perpendicular and parallel components with respect to the boundary plane. ISBN 978-94-007-4968-9 Mixed Grain Boundary A planar defect is a defect of the crystal structure across a plane. It is considered to be a two-dimensional defect, such as an internal interface or the surface. Planar Defect Interface A stacking fault is a planar defect created by an error (fault) in the order of the sequential layering of crystallographic planes. Stacking Fault The free surface (or external surface) of the material is a planar defect where the surface atoms have no neighbours or cohesive bonds on the external side. Surface A symmetrical tilt grain boundary is a tilt grain boundary where the two grains are symmetric. The boundary plane has the same Miller indices in crystals I and II: {hkl}_1 = {hkl}_2. ISBN 978-94-007-4968-9 Symmetrical Tilt Grain Boundary A twist boundary is a grain boundary with a [uvw] rotation axis perpendicular to the boundary plane. ISBN 978-94-007-4968-9 Tilt Grain Boundary Tilt Boundary A twin boundary is a planar defect that occurs between two separate crystals which are mirror images of each other, both crystals should have the same crystal structure. Twin Boundary A twist boundary is a grain boundary with a [uvw] rotation axis contained within the boundary plane. ISBN 978-94-007-4968-9 Twist Grain Boundary Twist Boundary A meaningful collection of concepts. An idea or notion; a unit of thought. A set of concepts, optionally including statements about semantic relationships between those concepts. Thesauri, classification schemes, subject heading lists, taxonomies, 'folksonomies', and other types of controlled vocabulary are all examples of concept schemes. Concept schemes are also embedded in glossaries and terminologies. An ordered collection of concepts, where both the grouping and the ordering are meaningful. skos:broadMatch is used to state a hierarchical mapping link between two conceptual resources in different concept schemes. Relates a concept to a concept that is more general in meaning. skos:broaderTransitive is a transitive superproperty of skos:broader. A note about a modification to a concept. skos:closeMatch is used to link two concepts that are sufficiently similar that they can be used interchangeably in some information retrieval applications. In order to avoid the possibility of "compound errors" when combining mappings across more than two concept schemes, skos:closeMatch is not declared to be a transitive property. A note for an editor, translator or maintainer of the vocabulary. skos:exactMatch is used to link two concepts, indicating a high degree of confidence that the concepts can be used interchangeably across a wide range of information retrieval applications. skos:exactMatch is a transitive property, and is a sub-property of skos:closeMatch. Relates, by convention, a concept scheme to a concept which is topmost in the broader/narrower concept hierarchies for that scheme, providing an entry point to these hierarchies. A lexical label for a resource that should be hidden when generating visual displays of the resource, but should still be accessible to free text search operations. A note about the past state/use/meaning of a concept. Relates a resource (for example a concept) to a concept scheme in which it is included. Relates two concepts coming, by convention, from different schemes, and that have comparable meanings Relates a collection to one of its members. Relates an ordered collection to the RDF list containing its members. skos:narrowMatch is used to state a hierarchical mapping link between two conceptual resources in different concept schemes. Relates a concept to a concept that is more specific in meaning. skos:narrowerTransitive is a transitive superproperty of skos:narrower. A notation, also known as classification code, is a string of characters such as "T58.5" or "303.4833" used to uniquely identify a concept within the scope of a given concept scheme. Relates a concept to a concept with which there is an associative semantic relationship. skos:relatedMatch is used to state an associative mapping link between two conceptual resources in different concept schemes. A note that helps to clarify the meaning and/or the use of a concept. Links a concept to a concept related by meaning. Relates a concept to the concept scheme that it is a top level concept of.
