Webel: SysML4Mathematica: Does every bit of the Mathematica code need to be modelled in SysML? No. Typically just the main function parameters and their interdependencies, data structures, and main code logic. Except for special or educational purposes.
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: POLICY: Handle flow sign changes via a single negative (not duplicated and "adjusted" algebra). This strategy may come at a very slight performance cost (for benefit of more robustness).
Cameo Simulation Toolkit: You can use Mathematica as an external maths engine to share maths between an OpaqueBehavior and a ConstraintBlock using custom auto-loaded Mathematica functions (keeps a project nice and DRY and respects Single Source of Truth)
HOWTO: MagicDraw/Cameo: v2022Refresh1: JDK 11 download compatible with the modelling tools AND Apple Silicon (ARM) machines (such as M1 Max)
SysMLv1.x: Limitation: The 'body' (maths formula) of an OpaqueBehavior can't be synchronised (shared) with the 'constraint' of a ConstraintBlock (directly in the SysML model). Can lead to a WET (not DRY) model and breaks Single Source of Truth!
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: TIP: Representing Mathematica functions as SysML ConstraintBlocks modelled in Block Definition Diagram (BDD) overviews can really help you organise and document your Wolfram Language code on complex projects!
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: TIP: Representing Mathematica functions as SysML ConstraintBlocks modelled in SysML Parametric Diagrams and as Activities in SysML Activity Diagrams is super for analysing the dependencies between functions and their arguments!
SysML: Cameo Systems Modeler: A ValueType that does not extend Real might not always simulate correctly when used to type a constraint parameter of a ConstraintBlock (in a SysML Parametric Diagram) or to type a parameter (in a SysML Activity Diagram)!
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: Convention: A Mathematica Blank '_' (which pattern-matches any Expression) is represented by a custom SysML ValueType '_'
SysML4Mathematica: Example: Block Definition Diagram overview of ConstraintBlocks, their parameters, and ConstraintBlock usages representing lower-level Webel Psy library Psychrometrics functions and CoolProp wrapper usages Gallery Tutorial TRAIL: Air Conditioning Psychrometrics (vs CED Engineering course): Example results (only) in Mathematica and SysML using the Webel Psy package and MPsy class Section Slide kind SysML Block Definition Diagram (BDD)
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: An Association used as the Type of an argument or return is represented by a Block '<||>'. A List used as as the Type of an argument or return is represented by a Block '{}'.
TIP: Webel: SysML/UML: On the boundary of symbols for ConstraintParameters on a ConstraintProperty (ConstraintBlock usage) symbol in Parametric Diagrams use any placement or "ordering" of ConstraintParameter symbols that works for the diagram!
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: When modelling the logic flow of Mathematica code with Activity diagrams it is not necessary to model every single Mathematica construct. Placeholder OpaqueBehaviors (used via CallBehaviorActions) and OpaqueActions may be used.
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: Cameo Systems Modeler: Can perform calculations with a custom Quantity ValueType (for Mathematica) directly, but DOES NOT perform units-aware algebra (no automatic conversions)
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: An '@' prefix in the name of a Block indicates a Mathematica data structure (such as an Association or List) that is not represented by an MTools class in the Mathematica code
Webel: SysML4Mathematica: An '@' prefix in the name of a ConstraintBlock, Activity, or OpaqueBehavior indicates that it is not represented by a dedicated function in a Mathematica code library (typically for minor maths or logic)
SysML Parametrics: You can use custom stereotypes keywords «i» and «o» on constraint parameters to indicate their intended use (causality) as (i)nputs and (o)utputs on ConstraintBlocks
GOTCHA/BUG: Cameo Simulation Toolkit v2021xR1 + Mathematica: Delegation to Mathematica from ConstraintBlocks FAILS if any of the input or output parameters are larger than 99999 because they get interpreted as 1.0e5 and that trips something! Aarrrggggh!
HOWTO access custom (user-defined) Mathematica functions using Mathematica v13.2 as an external maths engine for SysML Parametrics (ConstraintBlocks) in Magic Model Analyst (Cameo Simulation Toolkit) versions 2021x, 2021xR1, 2022xR1
Mathematica + Magic Model Analyst (Cameo Simulation Toolkit) for SysML Parametrics: GOTCHA: You must use a regular '=' on the SysML side, not the Mathematica '==' (or it will be intepreted as a constraint condition to test, not an equation to solve).

Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: In the Webel version it will be tentatively assumed we are in fact dealing with a large humidified space like an office building NOT a single "humidified room" - despite the block name HumidifiedRoom in the spec
Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: If the WaterTank::tankVolume 50,000 is measured in litres (L) the VaporPressureCalculation::volume within the HumidifiedRoom can't possibly be 25000.0 litre (L), it has to be 25000.0 (m^3), which is NOT a "room"
Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: It is assumed that 'HumidityBalance::volume = 25,000' and 'VaporPressureCalculation::volume = 25,000' are the same fixed SpaceVolume in cubic metres (m^3).
Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: Dimensional analysis of VaporPressureCalculationConstraint implies each 1 mL of water is equated with EXACTLY 1 g of produced vapor.
Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: Dimensional analysis of VaporPressureCalculationConstraint implies the output is a pressure rate, which makes no sense as consumed by RelativeHumidityCalculation and is inconsistent with the rest of the system.
Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: Dimensional analysis of HumidityBalanceConstraint implies constraint parameter 'airExRate' in {change=((humidity-envH)*(volume*airExRate))} is per-volume, assuming that 'volume' is a fixed Volume.
Webel vs SysPhS-1.1: Annex A.5: Humidifier: Dimensional analysis of RelativeHumidityCalculationConstraint implies constraint parameter 'change' in {der(x)=((press/satVap)-change)/c2} is a unitless relative humidity, given that 'c2' is a Time.

Figure 62 and Figure 63 show the parametric diagrams of the tank and the pipe, respectively. Source SysPhS-1.1
Binding connectors link constraint parameters to simulation variables and constants, indicating their values must be the same. Source SysPhS-1.1
Component parametric diagrams show properties typed by constraint blocks (constraint properties), as well as component and port simulation variables and constants. Source SysPhS-1.1
Equations in constraint blocks are applied to components using binding connectors in component parametric diagrams. Source SysPhS-1.1
Also, the fluid flow in the tank, fluidFlow, is related to the change in the fluid height level fluidHeight over time and the cross-sectional surface area of the tank, surfaceArea. Source SysPhS-1.1
The tank constraints specify that the pressure in the tank, pressure depends on the height of the fluid level in the tank, fluidHeight, as well as properties of the fluid, fluidDensity. Source SysPhS-1.1
The sum of the fluid flow rates going through the two pipe openings is zero (the fluid is assumed to be incompressible). Source SysPhS-1.1
The magnitude of fluid flow rate through the pipe fluidFlow is the same as the magnitude of flow rates opening1FluidFlow and opening2FluidFlow going through the pipe’s openings, though the values differ in sign. Source SysPhS-1.1
The fluid flow rate through the pipe, fluidFlow, is proportional to the pressure difference by the constant resistance, which depends on the geometric properties of the pipe as well as fluidic properties. Source SysPhS-1.1
The pipe constraints specify that the pressure pressureDiff across it is equal to the difference of fluid pressures opening1Pressure and opening2Pressure at each end of the pipe. Source SysPhS-1.1
In this example, constraint blocks PipeConstraint and TankConstraint define parameters and equations for pipes and tanks, respectively, as shown in Figure 61. Source SysPhS-1.1
Equations define mathematical relationships between the values of numeric variables. Equations in SysML, are constraints in constraint blocks that use properties of the blocks (parameters) as variables. Source SysPhS-1.1

Figure 52 through Figure 57 show parametric diagrams for the source, amplifier, high-pass fil[t]er, low-pass filter, mixer, and sink, respectively. Source SysPhS-1.1

Component parametric diagrams show properties typed by constraint blocks (constraint properties), as well as component and port simulation variables and constants. Source SysPhS-1.1
Equations in constraint blocks are applied to components using binding connectors in component parametric diagrams. Source SysPhS-1.1
The source constraint specifies a sine wave signal with the parameter amp as its amplitude. The sink constraint displays (scopes) the output signal from the signal processor. Source SysPhS-1.1
The mixer constraint specifies the relationship between its one output and the two inputs that come from the low-pass and high-pass filters. The constraint defines the output to be the average of the inputs. Source SysPhS-1.1
The amplifier changes the signal strength by a factor gain, the low-pass filter eliminates the high-frequency components of the incoming signal, and the high-pass filter eliminates the low-frequency components of the signal. Source SysPhS-1.1
The amplifier, low-pass fil[t]er, and high-pass filter constraints show the input-output relationship of these components as the signal passes through them. Source SysPhS-1.1
In this example, a constraint block BinarySignalComponentConstraint defines the parameters for one input (ip) and one output (op), common to amplifiers, low-pass filters, and high-pass filters, as shown in Figure 51. Source SysPhS-1.1
Equations define mathematical relationships between the values of numeric variables. Equations in SysML, are constraints in constraint blocks that use properties of the blocks (parameters) as variables. Source SysPhS-1.1

The source constraint defines the voltage across it as a sine wave with the parameter amp as its amplitude. Source SysPhS-1.1
The source constraint defines the circuit’s electrical source. The ground constraint specifies that the voltage at the ground pin is zero. Source SysPhS-1.1
The constraints for the resistor, capacitor, and inductor specify the voltage/current relationship with resistance, capacitance, and inductance, respectively. Source SysPhS-1.1
The sum of the current going through the two pins adds up to zero (one is the negative of the other), because the components do not create, destroy, or store charge. Source SysPhS-1.1
The current i through the component is equal to the current going through the positive pin. Source SysPhS-1.1
These specify that the voltage v across the component is equal to the difference between the voltage at the positive and negative pins. The current i through the component is equal to the current going through the positive pin. Source SysPhS-1.1
In this example, a constraint block BinaryElectricalComponentConstraint defines parameters and constraints common to resistors, inductors, capacitors, and sources, as shown in Figure 40. Source SysPhS-1.1
Equations define mathematical relationships between the values of numeric variables. Equations in SysML, are constraints in constraint blocks that use properties of the blocks (parameters) as variables. Source SysPhS-1.1

MagicDraw/Cameo: Does not support ConstraintNote: Can't callout the Constraint of the ConstraintBlock of a constraint property into a Note on a Parametric Diagram (show on the constraint property symbol instead)
The StraightLineVehicleDynamics constraint block from Figure D.32 has been expanded in Figure D.33. ConstraintNotes are used, which identify each constraint using curly brackets {}. In addition, Rationale has been used to explain the meaning ... Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Since overall fuel economy is a key requirement on the HSUV design, this example applies significant detail in assessing it. Figure D.32 shows the constraint blocks and properties necessary to evaluate fuel economy. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
SysML-1.6: Figure D.31 has constraint parameter 'vc' on ':CapacityEquation', which is inconsistent w.r.t. parameters 'V1', 'V2', 'V3' and constraint {pcap=Sum(Vi)) shown in Figure D.26.
This non-normative extension includes stereotypes for an objective function and a measure of effectiveness. The objective function is a stereotype of a ConstraintBlock and the measure of effectiveness is a stereotype of a block property. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6

Figure D.26 defines the various model elements that will be used to conduct analysis in this example. It depicts each of the constraint blocks/equations that will be used for the analysis, and key relationships between them. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A parametric diagram is a restricted form of internal block diagram that shows only the use of constraint blocks along with the properties they constrain within a context. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
The usage of a constraint block is distinguished from other parts by a box having rounded corners rather than the square corners of an ordinary part. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A constraint block is defined by a keyword of «constraint» applied to a block definition. Properties of this block define parameters of the constraint, with the exception of properties that hold internally nested usages of constraint blocks. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6

The context for the usages of constraint blocks shall also be specified in a parametric diagram to maintain the proper namespace for the nested properties. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
This allows a value property (such as an engine displacement) that may be deeply nested within a containing hierarchy (such as vehicle, power system, engine) to be referenced at the outer containing level (such as vehicle-level equations). Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A pathname dot notation can be used to refer to nested properties within a block hierarchy. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
The constrained properties, such as mass or response time, typically have simple value types that may also carry units, quantity kinds, or probability distributions. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
The usage of a constraint binds the parameters of the constraint, such as F, m, and a, to specific properties of a block, such as a mass, that provide values for the parameters. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Parametric diagrams include usages of constraint blocks to constrain the properties of another block. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
The constraints can be nested to enable a constraint to be defined in terms of more basic constraints such as primitive mathematical operators. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Reusable constraint definitions may be specified on block definition diagrams and packaged into general-purpose or domain-specific model libraries. Such constraints can be arbitrarily complex mathematical or logical expressions. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Constraint blocks define generic forms of constraints that can be used in multiple contexts. For example, a definition for Newton’s Laws may be used to specify these constraints in many different contexts. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A constraint block includes the constraint, such as {F=m*a}, and the parameters of the constraint such as F, m, and a. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Such constraints can also be used to identify critical performance parameters and their relationships to other parameters, which can be tracked throughout the system life cycle. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Constraint blocks can be used to specify a network of constraints that represent mathematical expressions such as {F=m*a} and {a=dv/dt}, which constrain the physical properties of a system. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Constraint blocks provide a mechanism for integrating engineering analysis such as performance and reliability models with other SysML models. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A constraint property is a property of any block that is typed by a constraint block. It holds a localized usage of the constraint block. Binding connectors may be used to bind the parameters of this constraint block to other properties of the block ... Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
All properties of a constraint block are constraint parameters, with the exception of constraint properties that hold internally nested usages of constraint blocks. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
Binding connectors, as defined in Clause 8 are used to bind each parameter of the constraint block to a property in the surrounding context. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A constraint block typically defines one or more constraint parameters, which are bound to properties of other blocks in a surrounding context where the constraint is used. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
A constraint block is a block that packages the statement of a constraint so it may be applied in a reusable way to constrain properties of other blocks. Source OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML) 1.6
