definition

PieceOfEquipment(x) ↔ MaterialArtifact(x) ∧ ∃r(EquipmentRole(r) ∧ hasRole(x,r))

every instance of 'piece of equipment' is defined as exactly an instance of 'material artifact' that 'has role' some 'equipment role'

explanatory note

See the expanded definition under the corresponding role class. The term is formalized here as a defined class by referring to its corresponding role class and exists primarily for ontological modeling and implementation convenience. Therefore, specific kinds of equipment such as machines, devices, and tools should be asserted under 'material artifact' and not directly under 'piece of equipment'.
