Changes
2.1.46 - 2024-12-09
Added
- QUDT Schema
- Add the
qudt:altSymbol
property to support using multiple symbols with a unit/quantitykind alongside
the primary one, which isqudt:symbol
- Add the
- New QuantityKinds
qk:AmountOfSubstanceIonConcentration
as a narrower kind ofqk:Concentration
.qk:CoefficientOfPerformance
by lazlopqk:CompoundPlaneAngle
qk:CountRate
( units:unit:NUM-PER-SEC
,unit:NUM-PER-HR
,unit:NUM-PER-YR
)qk:CurrentOfTheAmountOfSubstance
(replacesqk:CurrentOfTheAmountOfSubtance
)qk:RotationalFrequency
(units:unit:Hz
,unit:REV-PER-MIN
,unit:REV-PER-HR
,unit:REV-PER-SEC
)qk:VaporPermeability
(unit:unit:KiloGM-PER-PA-SEC-M
)qk:VaporPermeance
(for what used to beqk:VaporPermeability
, see 'Changed')
- New Units
unit:CYC-PER-SEC
unit:KiloLM
unit:CD-PER-KiloLM
unit:CI
(replacesunit:Ci
)unit:FLIGHT
(replacesunit:Flight
)
- Other Additions
- Add "mph" as
qudt:altSymbol
ofunit:M-PER-HR
from Toby Broom - Add "kph" as
qudt:altSymbol
ofunit:KiloM-PER-HR
from Toby Broom - SHACL validation of SHACL shapes by Dimitris Kontokostas
- Add "mph" as
Changed
- Enforce at most a single qudt:symbol for all instances.
- Delete spurious qudt:symbol values in a number of quantity kinds
- Correct the conversion offset for MilliDEG_C
- Rename
qk:VaporPermeability
toqk:VaporPermeance
and change all unit associations accordingly. - Unify
PER-X
symbols to the 15:1 majority pattern,"/x"
where"1/x"
is used - Unify
NUM-PER-X
symbols to always representNUM
as#
(as has already been used inunit:NUM
) - Remove
qk:NumberDensity
fromunit:PER-M3
- Make
qk:RotationalFrequency
exactMatch ofqk:RotationalVelocity
, remove broader qk - Make
qk:AngularFrequency
exactMatch ofqk:AngularVelocity
, remove broader qk
Deprecated
unit:Ci
(replaced by:unit:CI
)unit:Flight
(replaced by:unit:FLIGHT
)qk:CurrentOfTheAmountOfSubtance
(replaced byqk:CurrentOfTheAmountOfSubstance
)unit:CFU
(replaced by:unit:NUM
) - The CFU (colony forming unit) is a context-dependent unit that should
be part of an ontology with narrower scope than QUDT.
And as always, a big thank-you to all of you for bringing many of these issues to our attention, and even better, for providing submissions to extend the coverage and capabilities of QUDT!
