Definition

state of an item being able to perform a required function

Explanatory Notes

In defining the state of an item as being able to perform a required function, we are assuming that the external resources, if required, are provided

Note that in an operating state the item may be functional (so in the operating state) and not currently operating (performing in the functioning process)

Examples

  • running at desired speed, producing required power, pumping desired volume

Primitive Class

This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.

Primitive Rationale

generally speaking, the determination of maintenance state is determined from outside of the ontology, e.g., through analytics, other reasoning mechanims, or by reports from the device or control system, and so is not determinable from the ontology alone. The required constructs for creation of a formal definition are not available in this release.

Formal Axioms

First-Order Logic Axioms

OperatingState(x) → MaintenanceState(x)

Semi-Formal Natural Language Axioms
