  • 6. Measurements to be made on the vehicle ... 6.2. The speed curve which will be used in the test procedure described in Appendix 4 must be obtained from the longitudinal accelerometer at the 'B'pillar on the side struck. ... When multi-axial accelerations at a point are to be measured, each acceleration transducer axis should pass within 10 mm of that point, and the centre of seismic mass of each accelerometer should be within 30 mm of that point.

  • mõõteriist või andur kiirenduse mõõtmiseks lennukis, juhitavas raketis või kosmoselaevas
  • an instrument carried in aircraft, guided missile, or spacecraft for measuring acceleration in a specific direction
kiirendusmõõtur
Usage examples
  • Kiirendusmõõtureid kasutatakse staatilise gravitatsioonikiirenduse mõõtmisel, mis võimaldab määrata mõõdetava objekti kõrvalekalde nurga vertikaalist, samuti löökidest tingitud dünaamilise kiirenduse mõõtmisel.
accelerometer
Usage examples
  • As its name suggests, an accelerometer measures the linear acceleration of any moving or stationary object to which it is attached. Physically, accelerometers contain a test mass (also known as a seismic mass) with accurately known weight and shape, suspended by some mechanism (spring, flexible strip, membrane) from a rigid frame.

  • mõõtevahend liikuvate objektide (sõidukite, transpordimasinate, lennuaparaatide jms) kiirenduse mõõtmiseks
  • device that measures proper acceleration ("g-force")
  • tool that measures proper acceleration
kiirendusmõõtur preferred
Usage examples
  • Näiteks maakera pinnal puhkeasendis olev kiirendusmõõtur võimaldab mõõta Maa gravitatsioonist tingitud kiirendust otse ülespoole (definitsiooni järgi) g ≈ 9,81 m/s2; seevastu kiirendusmõõturid vabalangemises (langedes Maa keskpunkti suunas kiirendusega umbes 9,81 m/s2) näitavad mõõtmisel nulli.
aktseleromeeter deprecated
Good to know
  • Meeter on pikkusühik.
accelerometer preferred
Usage examples
  • For example, an accelerometer at rest on the surface of the Earth will measure an acceleration due to Earth's gravity, straight upwards (by definition) of g ≈ 9.81 m/s2; by contrast, accelerometers in free fall (falling toward the center of the Earth at a rate of about 9.81 m/s2) will measure zero.
