Name:

E18 Physical Thing

Description:

P159 occupied

Scope Note:

This property describes the real that is phenomenal, 4 dimensional point sets or volumes in spacetime that the trajectory of an instance of E18 Physical Thing occupies in the course of its existence. We include in the occupied space the space filled by the matter of the physical thing and all its inner spaces.

P157 is at rest relative to

Scope Note:

This property associates an instance of E53 Place with the instance of E18 Physical Thing that determines a reference space for this instance of E53 Place by being at rest with respect to this reference space. The relative stability of form of an E18 Physical Thing defines its default reference space.

P156 occupies

Scope Note:

This property describes the maximal real volume in space that an instance of E18 Physical Thing has occupied during its lifetime with respect to a reference space relative to which the thing is at rest. In other words, it is the volume that contains all the points which the thing has covered at some time during its existence.
