# Industrial Specification: All-wheel Drive System

## 1. Technical Definition
A drivetrain system that distributes power to all wheels of a vehicle simultaneously.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-3.5 MPa hydraulic pressure, -40°C to 150°C operating temperature**. Failure boundary: **Hydraulic pressure exceeding 4.2 MPa causes seal rupture, temperature exceeding 180°C degrades synthetic lubricant viscosity below 5 cSt**, Mechanism: **Seal failure due to elastomer compression set exceeding 15% at 4.2 MPa, lubricant thermal breakdown following Arrhenius equation with activation energy of 80 kJ/mol**.

### 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.
