Description | This ontology uses (minimal) spatial relations, high-levels ontological categories, and causal relations to supply a formal taxonomies of occurrences that are not, from the point of view of an engineer, as they should be. In particular, the terms fault, failure, failure mechanism, malfunction, and others are given precise interpretations. |

version | 1.1: - changed the definition of failure condition so that now there is a single equivalence axioms - added functionalIncompatibleWith object property, to harmonize with clif version - changed definition of MereSymptom and removed FunctionCompatible class, to harmonize with clif version - added comments to all entities - added annotations to the ontology - added (the only) two cases of sufficient conditions for FailureCondition - changed the name "FailureRelatedHappening" to "MalfunctionRelatedHappening" as it is more coherent with the definitions of Failure and Malfunction in the ontology - added subclass axiom to MalfunctionRelatedHappening for MereSymptom, FailureCondition, and FailureMechanism - removed some redundant subclass axioms |
