2. Systems Realization Laboratory Reference Models for Fluid Power Components  Aim: To organize knowledge about fluid power components into standardized, reusable and extensible models To develop methods for (re-)using this knowledge in support of the design of fluid power systems  Method: Define an ontology for describing fluid power components and systems Define reference models as standardized containers that include knowledge and information about the form, function and behavior of components Formalize the ontology and reference models in SysML Create semantic mappings between SysML and authoring and analysis tools

3. Systems Realization Laboratory Initial Focus: Wrapping Modelica Models  Make wrappers of Modelica models available in SysML so that they can be used to create models of new systems Not the intent to replace Modelica authoring tools (e.g., Dymola)  To use Modelica models, only the interface needs to be available Includes: Modelica connectors + parameters Modelica connectors  SysML InternalProperty Modelica parameters  SysML public value  Note: "parameter" denotes a quantity that remains constant for the duration of a simulation  Other model info is included for completeness But no semantics – unstructured text

4. Systems Realization Laboratory Semantic Mapping: SysML Modelica  Modelica is object oriented  many concepts map directly to SysML Examples:  Modelica class  SysML class  Modelica model  SysML block  Modelica partial class  SysML abstract class  But some mismatches due to richer Modelica semantics Special types of classes: model, record, block, connector, type, package, function encapsulated class  ?? Modelica Real has attributes: unit, quantity, displayUnit, nominal, fixed, start, min, max, … …

5. Systems Realization Laboratory Approach: Modelica Profile Note: work in progress…feedback welcome Extends Association Semantics Extend Semantics of SysML classes Extend Semantics of SysML Types

6. Systems Realization Laboratory SysML versions of Modelica Libraries Note: work in progress… Use Modelica Profile to Define the Interfaces of Models in Modelica Libraries

7. Systems Realization Laboratory Example: Hydraulic Motor [… internal definition of ConMot…] The connectors are defined in this parent model parameters are quantities that remain constant during a simulation, and are publicly accessible

8. Systems Realization Laboratory Example: Hydraulic Motor  Modelica (Dymola)  SysML (Artisan) (NOTE: We have been using Artisan RTS SysML v0.9)

9. Systems Realization Laboratory Example: Using Motor in Hydraulic Circuit Automatically Generated Modelica Model model VerticalLifter HyLibLight.Pumps.Tank tank; HyLibLight.Pumps.ConMot motor; HyLibLight.Pumps.Basic.IdFlowSource source; equation connect(tank.port_A, motor.port_B); connect(motor.port_A, source.port_B); end VerticalLifter;

10. Systems Realization Laboratory Next Steps  Get feedback from SysML community on semantic mapping  Expand the semantic mapping for  Implement / modify the mapping for updated SysML spec We will wait for update of spec in Artisan RTS  Implement tool for automatically mapping Modelica XML libraries into SysML wrappers
