Groq (inference cloud)
Groq is an American AI inference company founded in 2016 that built the LPU processor for serving large language models and now operates an inference cloud.
Groq $650 million growth round
The Groq $650 million growth round, announced June 22, 2026, was led by Disruptive and Infinitum to fund Groq's transition into a large-scale AI inference cloud.
Groq funding rounds
Groq's funding rounds trace the AI chip maker's raises from 2016 founding to 2026, from a $1 billion valuation to a $6.9 billion peak and a $3.5 billion down round.
Grose Bochse
The Grose Bochse, also written grosse Büchse, was a very large two-part bronze bombard cast at Marienburg, capital castle of the Teutonic Order in Prussia, in 1408.
Gross vehicle weight rating
Gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) is the maximum loaded weight a manufacturer assigns a vehicle, on its certification label; at 10,001 pounds or more it triggers federal commercial safety rules.
Grosvenor Coal Mine
The Grosvenor Coal Mine is an underground coking coal mine near Moranbah in Queensland's Bowen Basin, developed by Anglo American and first producing coal in 2016.
Grote Kerk, Haarlem
Grote of St.-Bavokerk (Grote Kerk), Haarlem's late Gothic cross-basilica on the Grote Markt: 78 m wooden crossing tower, 45 m Brick Gothic choir, 1738 Müller organ played by Handel and Mozart, 400 gravestones including Frans Hals.
Ground (electricity)
Ground, called earth in British usage, is a conductive body that electrical systems connect to so short-circuit or lightning current follows a controlled, low-resistance route.
Ground and neutral
Ground and neutral are two distinct conductors in electrical wiring: the neutral carries current back to the source, while the ground provides a safe fault-current path.
Ground Delay Program
A ground delay program is an FAA traffic management process that holds flights at their departure airports and assigns arrival slots to meter demand at a congested destination airport.
Ground effect (aerodynamics)
Ground effect, or Wing In Ground Effect, is the increase in lift-to-drag ratio a wing gains when flying close to a surface, felt within about half a wingspan.
Ground fault
A ground fault is an unintended electrical connection between an energized conductor and ground, letting current escape its normal path, sometimes through a person, and can start fires in solar arrays.
Ground freezing
Ground freezing (artificial ground freezing, AGF) is a geotechnical construction method that circulates refrigerant through drilled pipes, freezing pore water into a temporary ice-soil mass that strengthens ground and cuts off water.
Ground granulated blast-furnace slag
Ground granulated blast-furnace slag, also called GGBS or slag cement, is a finely ground byproduct of iron production in a blast furnace used to replace Portland cement in concrete.
Ground handling and ramp accidents
Ground handling and ramp accidents are accidents during aircraft ground operations, including pushback, towing, refuelling, and loading, injuring about 243,000 people and costing roughly $4 billion annually.
Ground loop (aviation)
A ground loop is the rapid, uncontrolled rotation of a fixed-wing aircraft on the ground, most often during the after-landing roll, and is especially common in tailwheel airplanes.
Ground loop (electricity)
A ground loop, also known as an earth loop, is an unwanted current path formed when grounded points at different potentials are connected, causing 50 or 60 Hz hum.
Ground motion prediction equation
A ground motion prediction equation, also called a ground motion model or attenuation relationship, is an empirical equation predicting ground shaking from earthquake magnitude and distance.
Ground News
Ground News is a Canadian news aggregation service, founded by Harleen Kaur and Sukh Singh in 2017, that labels each source with political bias, factuality, and ownership data.
Ground plane
A ground plane is a large continuous copper area on a printed circuit board or near an antenna, serving as a common voltage reference and low-impedance current return path.
Ground pressure
Ground pressure is the vertical stress a wheel, track, or outrigger exerts on the ground per unit contact area, and it determines whether machinery sinks into soft terrain.
Ground proximity warning system
The ground proximity warning system (GPWS) is an aircraft instrument that warns pilots of unintended flight toward terrain with spoken alerts like "whoop whoop, pull up."
Ground response analysis
Ground response analysis is a geotechnical earthquake engineering method that models how layered soil modifies seismic ground motion, producing surface response spectra and amplification factors for seismic design.
Ground screw (solar mounting)
A ground screw is a steel foundation element with helical plates, screwed into the soil to anchor solar PV arrays without concrete, excavation, or curing time.
Ground station
A ground station, also called a tracking station or Earth terminal, is a terrestrial facility with antennas that communicates with spacecraft, sending commands and receiving data.
Ground support equipment
Ground support equipment is the motorized and non-motorized vehicles used at airports to service aircraft during turnaround, including baggage tugs, belt loaders, fuel trucks, lavatory trucks, and pushback tractors.
Ground Vehicle Systems Center
The Ground Vehicle Systems Center (GVSC), known until 2019 as TARDEC, is the U.S. Army's research and development facility for ground vehicle technology in Warren, Michigan.
Ground-Based Midcourse Defense
Ground-Based Midcourse Defense (GMD) is the United States' sole system for destroying incoming ICBM warheads by direct collision in space, deployed since 2004 with 44 interceptors in Alaska and California.
Ground-effect vehicle
A ground-effect vehicle, formally called a wing-in-ground (WIG) craft, flies close above water for extra lift, carrying more weight farther than aircraft; the Soviet Union's large versions were called ekranoplans.
Ground-source heat pump
A ground-source heat pump (GSHP), also called a geothermal heat pump, is a heating and cooling system that exchanges heat with the ground through buried pipes.
