comment: This is an experimental ontology for the PMD ontology playground.

Analysis Process
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000015
comment: A process that is driven by the primary intent to gain new measurements An analysis process is either a transformative process or a non-transformative process.

Atomistic Level Material Structure
type: Class
subclass of: Material Structure
comment: It is a material length scale. Includes individual atoms and their spatial arrangement, information on the chemical elements, information on the lattice and crystal structure, 0-dimensional crystal defects

Continuum Level Material Structure
type: Class
subclass of: Material Structure
comment: A material structure that is at the length level of the the entire geometry.

Manufacture Process
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000015
comment: A process that is driven by the primary intent to transform objects A manufacture process is always a transformative process.

Material Identifier
type: Class
subclass of: Entity
comment: It is a name or identifier of a material type. It designates a material. E.g. "steel", "aluminium", "wood", "plastic", "rubber".
editorial note: former "Material" : "It is a substance or mixture of substances that constitutes an object. represented by the sum of material properties and material structure"

Material Quality
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000019
comment: Physical property of a material which is measurable and characterizes a specific object, e.g. a specimen.

Material Quality Specification
type: Class
subclass of: Quality Specification
comment: Specification of a physical property of a material

Material Structure
type: Class
subclass of: Entity
comment: Structural and compositional information on a material within the regarded material level, includes 0,1,2,3 dimensional descriptions involves all material levels.

Measured Information
type: Class
subclass of: Entity
definition: The output of a process facilitated by a measument device. The output is about a specific object quality.

Measurement Device
type: Class
subclass of: Process Node
definition: A process node capable of determining a specific quality.

Medium
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000030
comment: A condition or environment in which something may function or flourish. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/medium

Mesoscopic Level Material Structure
type: Class
subclass of: Material Structure
comment: A material structure that covers multiple grains or phases of the material

Microscopic Level Material Structure
type: Class
subclass of: Material Structure
comment: A material structure on a single grain level

Nano Level Material Structure
type: Class
subclass of: Material Structure
comment: A Material Structure that involves individual features within one single grain or phase like dislocations or precipitates.

Non Transformative Analysis Process
type: Class
subclass of: Analysis Process
comment: An analysis process that is also a non-transformative process

PmdObject
type: Class
equivalent class: Class
  intersection of: Class
comment: There is no need for sub-objects, because objects can be part of other objects. Status cannot be object, because is is not physical.

Process Node
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000030
comment: A workflow constituent that facilitates process instances, e.g. a service, tool, or machine.

Quality Specification
type: Class
subclass of: Entity
comment: Specification of a physical property of something

Resource Identifier
type: Class
subclass of: Entity
definition: A content identifier that designates a digtal element that can be accessed or modified via information technology systems.

Simulation Process
type: Class
subclass of: Analysis Process
comment: An analysis process that is used for a simulation

Specimen
type: Class
subclass of: BFO_0000030
comment: An object designed for a specific analysis.

Transformative Analysis Process
type: Class
subclass of: Analysis Process
comment: An analysis process that is also a transformative process

Uniform Resource Identifier
type: Class
subclass of: Resource Identifier
definition: rfc 3986
