The force to stock value notation follows the one
proposed by van Zijderveld [24]. It
indicates some form of control as the influencing stock's
value—connected to the stockInfoInput—provides the
setpoint for a process of "closing the gap" adjustment
(CloseGap)
with regard to the influenced stock connected to the component's
flowPort.

For more options, e.g., have control be active during limited
period, use the →SimpleControl
component with an optional input for the setpoint
(hasExogenousSetpoint = true) and connnect it to the
influencing stock using →StockInformation.
