Aspect

A measurable characteristic.

Length, weight, cost, cycle time, defect rate, wheelbase, billing rate.

Depending on implementation, every aspect should be related to a unit group either directly or through a broader aspect. For example, angle of incidence could be related to the broader concept of angle, which in turn is related to a unit group, or it could be related directly to the unit group without the hierarchical relationship.

Rule of thumb: use the least specific aspect that serves the intended purpose, increasing specificity only when required (e.g., to distinguish between two magnitudes attached to the same object).
