Title: SysML valueType or constraintBlock or both?
Post by: DanG83616 on October 12, 2010, 11:28:12 am

Constraint Block specifies the relationship between factors of the quantity and its value. A Value Type just describes the quantity. I think any time a quantity is calculated it would make some sense to create a Constraint Block for it. If the quantity is an input to another constraint, I think I want it in Value Type form. So, if the system computes a quantity the model will have a Constrain Block for it. If it takes the quantity as input the model will have a Value Type for it. If the system does both then the model will have both Constraint Block and Value Type representations for the quantity, right?

Thanks,
