What is Configuration: Definition and 267 Discussions

Configuration management (CM) is a systems engineering process for establishing and maintaining consistency of a product's performance, functional, and physical attributes with its requirements, design, and operational information throughout its life.
The CM process is widely used by military engineering organizations to manage changes throughout the system lifecycle of complex systems, such as weapon systems, military vehicles, and information systems. Outside the military, the CM process is also used with IT service management as defined by ITIL, and with other domain models in the civil engineering and other industrial engineering segments such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, and buildings.

    Canard Configuration and Sum of Moments

    I'm in an aerodynamics class, and I have this canard configuration I'm trying to figure out for a final exam. I need to find the sum of the moment about the center of gravity. I may cannot be helped without the drawing being posted. So far this is what i have: Mcg = Mac - (lcg + lw)Lw +...

    Will this configuration reduce the shear stress on the main beam?

    Imagine a moderately long beam fixed at one end to a wall. Near the end of the beam, a very heavy weight is kept on top of the beam. At the same spot, two small beams are fixed under the main beam in a V shaped configuration such that the two beams form a sort of "press fit" i.e. they exert a...

    Deriving the Quantum Properties of a General Configuration Space

    The requirements, posed on a system given by the configuration coordinates q(t) = (q^1(t), q^2(t), ...) that (1) they be subject to 2nd-order equations of motion: q'(t) = v(t), v'(t) = a(q(t),v(t)) and (2) have a classical configuration space at each time: [q^i(t), q^j(t)] = is nearly...

    Type of transistor configuration on a circuit

    OK, I need some help here. I can´t really recognize the type of transistor configuration on a circuit (common emitter, common base, common colector). I`ll some tips that help me identify the configuration. Check the circuit attached.
