Ontology

 Introduction

  • What is the purpose?
    The ontology’s goal is to make the process of choosing slope stability techniques easier by offering a well-organized framework that takes into account the equipment and site conditions.
  • What is the scope?
    It provides clarity among the plethora of options by covering a variety of slope stabilization techniques. It also helps stakeholders collaborate by forecasting earthwork conditions.
  • Who are the intended end-users?
    Regardless of level of experience, the intended users are designers, contractors, and clients working on slope stability projects.
  • What is the intended use?
    The purpose of this is to support the selection of appropriate slope stability techniques for a range of construction projects, encouraging well-informed choices and productive teamwork.

Class Hierarchy

Ontology development proceeds to the next stage, which is the hierarchy and class structure. Protége software is used for this. Subclasses are then defined for every one of these classes. The class hierarchy can be seen below:

arash-class-heirarchy

Ontograf

In the Software Protégé, the plug-in OntoGraf is used to visualize the ontology. The ontology for the Slope Stability Methods is visualized after the classes, hierarchy, and their relationships are taken into account as axioms. The ontology can be seen below:
