Notes
[TIP]{INFORMATIVE} QUDV in SysML refers to: Quantity, Unit, Dimension, Value. It is strongly influenced by the International Vocabulary of Metrology (VIM).
[TIP]{SUGGESTED} You can use a ValueType to document how a value of a certain quantity kind should be measured (in a particular system, in a particular organisation, or according to an industry standard).
[NAMING, POLICY]{STRICT} SysMLv1.x: ValueType naming: The Webel convention is 'UpperCamelCase' (a.k.a. PascalCase).
Snippets (quotes/extracts)
  [SysML-1.6] ... a SysML value property is understood to correspond to the VIM concept of "quantity" defined as a "property of a phenomenon, body or substance, where the property has a magnitude that can be expressed as a number and a reference" [VIM3-1.1].
  [SysML-1.6] A Unit is a quantity in terms of which the magnitudes of other quantities that have the same quantity kind can be stated.
  [SysML-1.6] Unit is defined as a non-abstract SysML Block defined in the SysML UnitAndQuantityKind model library.
  [SysML-1.6] Unit, or a specialization of it, classifies an InstanceSpecification to define a particular "measurement unit" in the sense of a "real scalar quantity, defined and adopted by convention, with which any other quantity of the same kind can be compared ...
  [SysML-1.6] QuantityKind is defined as a non-abstract SysML Block defined in the SysML UnitAndQuantityKind model library.
  [SysML-1.6] A QuantityKind is a kind of quantity that may be stated by means of defined units. For example, the quantity kind of length may be measured by units of meters, kilometers, or feet.
  [SysML-1.6] QuantityKind, or a specialization of it, classifies an InstanceSpecification to define a particular "kind-of-quantity" in the sense of an "aspect common to mutually comparable quantities" [VIM3-1.2], ...
  [SysML-1.6] quantityKind : InstanceSpecification [0..1] A kind of quantity, represented by an InstanceSpecification classified by a kind of SysML QuantityKind, that may be stated by means of units. A value type may optionally specify a quantity kind without any unit.
  [SysML-1.6] A DerivedUnit is a Unit that represents a measurement unit that is defined as a product of powers of one or more other measurement units.
