Description

Motivation	This is a logical pattern to define a partition. It is independant of a specific domain. Partitions are a common modeling structure.
Aim	The ontology engineer may say that a class is a partition over other classes (including class expressions). A partition is a structure dividing its content into several parts.
Solution description	We introduce two axioms where Partition is the Partition class and B1,...,Bn are arbitrary class expressions (n >= 2) (expressed in OWL 2 Abstract Syntax) EquivalentClasses(Partition, ObjectUnionOf(B1, ..., Bn)) DisjointClasses(B1, ..., Bn)
