A Multi-Level Architecture for Reusable Materials Ontologies -- The OntoCrafter Ceramics Ontology (OCO) as Reference Implementation
Researchers have proposed a novel multi-level architecture for reusable materials ontologies, addressing fragmentation in the field. This architecture features independent classification axes for abstraction level and consumer audience, aiming to integrate material-specific data with regulatory compliance requirements. The proposed OntoCrafter Ceramics Ontology (OCO) serves as a reference implementation, organizing ceramic material data into a seven-tier mechanistic-explanation skeleton. AI
