acceleration response
1Response spectrum — A response spectrum is simply a plot of the peak or steady state response (displacement, velocity or acceleration) of a series of oscillators of varying natural frequency, that are forced into motion by the same base vibration or shock. The… …
2acceleration enrichment — The action of increasing the fuel/air mixture during acceleration in order to improve the vehicle s speed and its smooth response …
3Shock response spectrum — A Shock Response Spectrum (SRS) [ [http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/Shock+response+spectrum Acronym] Acronym] is a graphical representation of an arbitrary transient acceleration input, such as shock in terms of how a Single Degree Of… …
4Peak ground acceleration — (PGA) is a measure of earthquake acceleration on the ground and an important input parameter for earthquake engineering, also known as the design basis earthquake ground motion (DBEGM)[1] Unlike the Richter and moment magnitude scales, it is not… …
5Fight-or-flight response — Refimprove|date=February 2007The fight or flight response, also called the fright , fight or flight response, hyperarousal or the acute stress response, was first described by Walter Cannon in 1915. [… …
6Throttle response — or vehicle responsiveness is the responsiveness of the vehicle to throttle (accelerator pedal) modulation. When accelerator pedal pressed suddenly, how fast power output of engine increases implies the throttle response of that vehicle. Throttle… …
7Dynamic response index — The Dynamic Response Index (DRI) is a measure of the likelihood of spinal damage arising from a vertical shock load such as might be encountered in a military environment (i.e., during a mine blast, or in an ejection seat). The DRI is a… …
8TCP acceleration — is the name of a series of techniques for achieving better throughput on an Internet connection than standard TCP achieves, without modifying the end applications. It is an alternative or a supplement to TCP tuning.Commonly used approaches… …
9Seismic response of landfill — Solid waste landfills can be affected by seismic activity. The tension in a landfill liner rises significantly during an earthquake, and can lead to stretching or tearing of the material.[1] The top of the landfill may crack, and methane… …
10Lag response of prepayments — There is typically a lag of about three months between the time the weighted average coupon of an MBS pool has crossed the threshold for refinancing and an acceleration in prepayment speed is observed. The New York Times Financial Glossary …
