Engine placement and mounting configurations
Engine placement and mounting configurations are the classes of location and attachment by which aircraft engines are installed, affecting safety, drag, flutter, structural weight, and growth potential.
Engine placement on water-capable aircraft
Engine placement on water-capable aircraft puts engines and propellers high, in wings, gull-wing breaks, or pylons, to clear hull spray, at the cost of unusual handling and pusher efficiency.
Engine-generator
An engine-generator, or genset, is a generating set in which an internal combustion engine drives an AC generator to convert fuel into electrical power, from small residential units to large standby diesels.

Engineered barrier system
An engineered barrier system is the set of engineered materials in a geological repository, including canisters, buffer, and backfill, that isolates radioactive waste from the biosphere.
Engineered cementitious composite
Engineered cementitious composite (ECC), also called strain-hardening cementitious composite or bendable concrete, is a fiber-reinforced cement material that stretches over 300 times more than ordinary concrete.
Engineered living materials
Engineered living materials (ELMs) are biohybrid materials combining living cells, often engineered bacteria, with nonliving matrices so the material can sense, adapt, and sometimes repair itself.
Engineered materials arrestor system
An engineered materials arrestor system (EMAS) is a bed of crushable cellular concrete blocks beyond a runway end that decelerates and safely stops an overrunning aircraft.
Engineered wood
Engineered wood, also known as composite wood or manufactured boards, is a structural building material made by bonding veneers, strands, or particles with adhesives into products like plywood, I-joists, and glulam.
Engineering
Engineering applies mathematics, basic science, and engineering science to devise systems, components, and processes that meet desired needs within real-world constraints such as cost, safety, regulations, and schedule.

Engineering technician
An engineering technician, sometimes abbreviated EngTech, is a worker who supports engineers in testing, drafting, inspection, installation, and maintenance, typically entering the field with an associate degree.
Engineering tolerance
An engineering tolerance, also called a manufacturing tolerance, is the permissible variation in a part's dimensions set so the part still functions and assembles properly.
Engineering, procurement, and construction
Engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC), also called turnkey contracting, is a project delivery model in which a single contractor handles design, procurement, and construction, usually for a fixed price.
