Whois & Analysis for pfeiffer-vacuum.com

Vacuum is space void of matter.

The word stems from the Latin adjective vacuus for "vacant" or "void".

An approximation to such vacuum is a region with a gaseous pressure much less than atmospheric pressure.

Physicists often discuss ideal test results that would occur in a perfect vacuum, which they sometimes simply call "vacuum" or free space, and use the term partial vacuum to refer to an actual imperfect vacuum as one might have in a laboratory or in space.

In engineering and applied physics on the other hand, vacuum refers to any space in which the pressure is lower than atmospheric pressure.

The Latin term in vacuo is used to describe an object that is surrounded by a vacuum.

Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary field of engineering and engineering management that focuses on how to design and manage complex systems over their life cycles.

At its core systems engineering utilizes systems thinking principles to organize this body of knowledge.

Issues such as requirements engineering, , logistics, coordination of different teams, testing and evaluation, maintainability and many other disciplines necessary for successful system development, design, implementation, and ultimate decommission become more difficult when dealing with large or complex projects.

Systems engineering deals with work-processes, optimization methods, and risk management tools in such projects.

It overlaps technical and human-centered disciplines such as industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, manufacturing engineering, control engineering, software engineering, electrical engineering, cybernetics, organizational studies, engineering management and project management.

Systems engineering ensures that all likely aspects of a project or system are considered, and integrated into a whole.

A gadget is a small tool such as a machine that has a particular function, but is often thought of as a novelty.

Gadgets are sometimes referred to as gizmos.

Gizmos in particular are a bit different from gadgets.

Gadgets in particular are small tools powered by electronic principles (a circuit board).

Magnetic levitation, maglev, or magnetic suspension is a method by which an object is suspended with no support other than magnetic fields.

Magnetic force is used to counteract the effects of the gravitational acceleration and any other accelerations.

A hybrid vehicle uses two or more distinct types of power, such as internal combustion engine plus electric motor, e.g. in diesel-electric trains using diesel engines and electricity from overhead lines, and submarines that use diesels when surfaced and batteries when submerged.
