Abstract
Systems and methods establish, activate, and deactivate variant choices within an acausal physical component model of a physical system. The systems and methods utilize variant connector blocks to establish cut points in a physical network defined by the physical model. The cut points may be programmatically controlled to activate and/or deactivate a variant choice. The variant connector blocks may include internal connections that may be programmatically controlled to be either open or closed in order to cut or include a variant choice in the acausal physical component model. Variant conditions or labels may be associated with the internal connections, and the systems and methods may evaluate the variant conditions and/or examine the labels to determine whether the internal connections are open or closed.
