 | Acceleration keeps increasing and is measured in velocity per time (e.g., feet (or meters) per second per second or feet (or meters) per second squared). |
 | Accelerators differ from catalysts in that they are a part of the chemical reaction and lose their chemical identity as a result. |
 | regulators, it is the distance between the contact armature and the iron core that when magnetized, draws the armature down. |

Wheel acceleration slip control apparatus in a vehicle brake system - Patent 4976329 (6429 words) |
 | In the wheel acceleration slip control apparatus of the present invention constructed as described above, the nominal control target corresponding to the detected slipping condition of the drive wheel having the comparatively high slipping tendency is used as the final control target, in both of the first and second cases. |
 | Thus, the slip of the wheel 16 during acceleration of the wheel is reduced or eliminated by suitably controlling the pressure in the wheel cylinder 44. |
 | During this wheel acceleration slip control operation, the solenoid-operated shut-off valve 54 is maintained in its closed position, and the wheel cylinder 44 is disconnected from the variable-volume chamber 62. |
