Acceleration due to gravity, acceleration of gravity or gravity acceleration may refer to: Gravitational acceleration, the acceleration caused by the...

Plasma acceleration is a technique for accelerating charged particles, such as electrons or ions, using the electric field associated with electron plasma...

Effective accelerationism, often abbreviated as "e/acc", is a 21st-century philosophical movement that advocates for an explicitly pro-technology stance...

of relativity, four-acceleration is a four-vector (vector in four-dimensional spacetime) that is analogous to classical acceleration (a three-dimensional...

acceleration is one of a collection of sequence transformations for improving the rate of convergence of a series. Techniques for series acceleration...

The Great Acceleration is the dramatic, continuous and roughly simultaneous surge across a large range of measures of human activity, first recorded in...

Academic acceleration is moving students through an educational program at a rate faster or at an age younger than is typical. Students who would benefit...

Look up acceleration in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. Acceleration, in physics, is the rate at which the velocity of a body changes over time. Acceleration...

Tidal acceleration is an effect of the tidal forces between an orbiting natural satellite (e.g. the Moon) and the primary planet that it orbits (e.g. Earth)...

In physics, gravitational acceleration is the acceleration of an object in free fall within a vacuum (and thus without experiencing drag). This is the...

Fermi acceleration, sometimes referred to as diffusive shock acceleration (a subclass of Fermi acceleration), is the acceleration that charged particles...

TLS acceleration (formerly known as SSL acceleration) is a method of offloading processor-intensive public-key encryption for Transport Layer Security...

Hardware acceleration is the use of computer hardware designed to perform specific functions more efficiently when compared to software running on a general-purpose...

In mathematics, Anderson acceleration, also called Anderson mixing, is a method for the acceleration of the convergence rate of fixed-point iterations...

Acceleration is defined in law as a shortening of the time period in which something is to take place. The concept of acceleration most often arises within...

motion: the particle acceleration or sound acceleration with the symbol a in metre/second2. In acoustics or physics, acceleration (symbol: a) is defined...

Spectral acceleration (SA) is a unit measured in g (the acceleration due to Earth's gravity, equivalent to g-force) that describes the maximum acceleration in...

Sudden unintended acceleration (SUA) is the unintended, unexpected, uncontrolled acceleration of a vehicle, often accompanied by an apparent loss of braking...

Acceleration is a 2019 American action film directed by Michael Merino and Daniel Zirilli. The film stars Sean Patrick Flanery, with a supporting cast...

A writ in acceleration, commonly called a writ of acceleration, is a type of writ of summons that enabled the eldest son and heir apparent of a peer with...

Peak ground acceleration (PGA) is equal to the maximum ground acceleration that occurred during earthquake shaking at a location. PGA is equal to the amplitude...

accelerometer is a device that measures the proper acceleration of an object. Proper acceleration is the acceleration (the rate of change of velocity) of the object...

Codec acceleration describes computer hardware that offloads the computationally intensive compression or decompression. This allows, for instance, a mobile...
