# Industrial Specification: Transition Engine

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical component within the State Manager system that facilitates controlled transitions between operational states.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **15-85°C ambient temperature, 0.5-3.0 MPa hydraulic pressure, 10-1000 RPM rotational speed**. Failure boundary: **Hydraulic pressure exceeding 3.5 MPa causes seal extrusion, temperatures above 95°C degrade polymer components, rotational speeds beyond 1200 RPM induce bearing resonance**, Mechanism: **Seal failure occurs via extrusion through clearance gaps at ΔP &gt; 0.5 MPa, thermal degradation follows Arrhenius kinetics with activation energy 80 kJ/mol, resonance occurs at critical speed ω_c = √(k/m) where k=stiffness (2.5×10^6 N/m) and m=mass (15 kg)**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **L10 Bearing Life & Fatigue Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $L_{10} = (\frac{C}{P})^p$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts mechanical lifecycle before component fatigue.
