Datatypes, units

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: oose Innovative Informatik eG ( Mr. Tim Weilkiens)
  • Summary:

    Clauses 10.10 and 10.6.11 should refer to valuetypes in SysML, rather than datatypes. Clause 10.10 should mention that the unit in the example is from the library in Figure 20 and should use the same notation in Figure 16. The type wording in the last row of the table in Clause 10.5.6 should be clarified. Correspondences should be given between standard and platform-specific unit symbols, and standard symbols used in Figure 20. Figure 20 should qualify Real, include time/seconds, and be in a clause at the same levels as component interaction/behavior.

SimulinkPort and ModelicaPort are optional

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: oose Innovative Informatik eG ( Mr. Tim Weilkiens)
  • Summary:

    Clause 11.3 should explain that SimulinkPort and ModelicaPort are only necessary when the name of the Simulink or Modelica port differs from the library port name. Otherwise, ports owned or inherited by SimulinkBlock or ModelicaBlock correspond to Simulink or Modelica ports of the same name, and SimulinkPort and ModelicaPort do not need to be applied.

Component library headers, behavior

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    The table headers in Clause 11.3 are inconsistent, referring to either the type of element or a name, some capitalized and other not, and the platform columns are called out but not the component library columns. The behavior column is not explained well enough.

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Airbus Group ( Mr. Yves Bernard)
  • Summary:

    In Clause 11.4, Modelica and Simulink parameters should be kinds of PhSConstants. The dimensions and value properties have the wrong types and multiplicities (and dimensions should be singular). The application of MultiDimensionalElement in 11.3 needs more explanation and multiplicities shown. Vector signal elements used in the component library are missing.

Simscape left/right annotations, Simulink port arrays & blocks

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Airbus Group ( Mr. Yves Bernard)
  • Summary:

    Left/right annotations should be used on all Simscape correspondences for nodes, inputs, and outputs (in case Simscape components are used by Simulink, which requires them). The Simscape code in Clause 10.8.6 should define inputs and outputs the same way as in Clause 10.6.6. Simulink’s use of arrays to specify ports should be explained, as well as block identifiers.

Simulink/Simscape block correspondences, clause order


Package correspondences, clause order

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: oose Innovative Informatik eG ( Mr. Tim Weilkiens)
  • Summary:

    Clause 10.3 should focus SysML package correspondences on platform elements, with files supporting the elements. Simscape has no language element corresponding to SysML packages, so the clause should explain in terms of Simscape files and compiled libraries. Code samples in Clauses 10.2 and 10.4 should reflect the SysML packages in 10.2.2 and 10.4.2, respectively (and the SysML figures should include blocks referenced in the package). Clause 10.3.4 code sample should separate model and library (saying more about their purpose and referring to Clause 10.2.4 for details about blocks). Clause 10.2 should be after 10.3.

Assignments

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: oose Innovative Informatik eG ( Mr. Tim Weilkiens)
  • Summary:

    Clause 6.1 distinguishes signal flow and physical interaction partly by whether assignments or equations are used, but signal flow mostly uses equations in the rest of the spec. The rest of spec refers to equations and assignments, but the expression language can also be used in ChangeExpressions.

SimProperty/SimBlock not needed

  • Key: SYSPISF_-5
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Dassault Systemes ( Mr. Nerijus Jankevicius)
  • Summary:

    Simulation properties and blocks aren’t needed:

    • Physical interaction could be modeled with fl owproperties typed by specialized conserved substance types that have potential and flow rate simulation variables. These could be in compartments labelled for physical interactions.
    • Signal flow could be modeled with flow properties typed by Real, Integer, or Boolean, and that have SimVariable applied. These could be in compartments labelled for signal flows.

Connector clauses should give correspondences

  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    Clauses 10.7.4 through 10.7.6 should give correspondences between SysML and simulation platforms, like the other clauses do. Some code is missing the container object shown in Figure 12 or uses a different name for it. Figure 12 uses Spring for two parts, but these parts are different in Clause 10.7.6.

Improve stereotype names

  • Key: SYSPISF_-3
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Airbus Group ( Mr. Yves Bernard)
  • Summary:

    The stereotype defined in order to support simulation of physical and signal flows might also be used for specifying related system characteristics through a model, independently of any simulation intent.

    However, the "Sim" prefix used for each stereotype defined in this profile might discourage such an utilization and so it tends to restrict its domain of application. It's a shame.

    Consider using a more neutral prefix like "pisf" or avoiding using the "Sim" prefix for all of the stereotypes. Especially constants are of far broader interest than simulation only (and should event be introduced in SysML to me). The name "Constant" would be convenient. Also, I think that "SimVariable" could be renamed "FlowVariable".
