Relationships      
Parents engineering component A fundamental concept that applies in many engineering domains. An EngineeringComponent is an element of a Device that is a physically whole object, such as one might see listed as standard parts in a catalog. The main difference betweeen EngineeringComponents and arbitrary globs of matter is that EngineeringComponents are object-like in a modeling sense. Thus, an EngineeringComponent is not an arbtrary subregion, but a part of a system with a stable identity.
Children transmissionA Gearbox with several Gears that allow a given rotational speed of the Crankshaft to be translated ultimately to different speeds of the Driveshaft (within the power and maximum RPM capabilities of the Engine).
