Dimensional Analysis. A helpful practice for identifying constraints on a system model developed using ISE&PPOOA MBSE methodology

MBSE methodologies application ends with the physical architecture of the system, but a physical model is clearly incomplete without the study of its associated physical laws and phenomena related to the whole system or its parts. Here we propose the use dimensional analysis to identify from the sytem model the constraints derived from Physics laws and to be represented as SysML constraints blocks that constrain either the behavior of the complete system or one of its parts.
