emplace
Fix in location
To emplace is to put something into position, especially heavy equipment or weapons: The artillery was emplaced on the ridge.
The word is largely military and technical, referring to the deliberate positioning of guns, missiles, or defensive structures.
Outside military contexts, emplace occasionally appears in geology and engineering for setting objects firmly in place.
