average velocity
In addition to their orbital motions, particles may also have an average velocity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
conduction velocity
The average linear conduction velocity of delayed calcium responses was 10.7 + 0.82 m sec-1 (n=75).
From theCambridge English Corpus
constant velocity
This region is moving downstream with a constant velocity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
current velocity
The current velocity predicted by (4.14) is then 2.85 cm s-l.
From theCambridge English Corpus
exhaust velocity
Performance headers work to increase the exhaust velocity as much as possible.
From
Wikipedia
exit velocity
A cruciform insert eliminated any swirl in the plenum, which could lead to a significant swirl component in the jet exit velocity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
expansion velocity
Ions in these groups have different average expansion velocity and longitudinal velocity spread.
From theCambridge English Corpus
forward velocity
To increase it to 0.7 m/s, the biped was required to delay the touch-down of the swing leg until it had gained sufflcient forward velocity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
friction velocity
This implies that the friction velocity and roughness length are both enhanced significantly for the breaking waves when compared with the incipient breaking cases.
From theCambridge English Corpus
high velocity
On the other hand, high velocity in the atmosphere leads to unacceptable drag losses.
From theCambridge English Corpus
horizontal velocity
This ensures that the horizontal velocity fields stay smooth for smooth initial data.
From theCambridge English Corpus
increased velocity
There can initially be evidence of forward flow, even at an increased velocity, in the pulmonary trunk, which disappears as pregnancy progresses.
From theCambridge English Corpus
increasing velocity
The breakup time generally decreases with increasing velocity modulation amplitude.
From theCambridge English Corpus
initial velocity
The main effect as shown in figure 10 is that the larger particles could rise higher (for given initial velocity).
From theCambridge English Corpus
linear velocity
The linear velocity for this experiment was set to 200 mm/s.
From theCambridge English Corpus
low velocity
This feature highlights an arbitrarily strong coupling between low velocity ion projectile and target electrons.
From theCambridge English Corpus
maximal velocity
The latter were normalized such that their maximal velocity equalled one.
From theCambridge English Corpus
maximum velocity
This maximum velocity was limited by the necessity to maintain smooth stable interfaces.
From theCambridge English Corpus
mean velocity
Two notions of similarity of the mean velocity defect profiles can now be considered.
From theCambridge English Corpus
orbital velocity
Then the flyer is rotated and the laser is turned on for only 40 s to produce a final kick to orbital velocity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
peak velocity
Since the onset of motion was significantly delayed on this test and the time window narrow, the peak velocity may not have been achieved.
From theCambridge English Corpus
relativistic velocity
Since we will consider non-relativistic temperatures as well, the beam velocity is eventually the only relativistic velocity of the problem.
From theCambridge English Corpus
rotational velocity
The major part of the movement is manifested in the rotational velocity.
From theCambridge English Corpus
velocity dispersion
In the outer layer, hairpin vortices occur in streamwise-aligned packets that propagate with small velocity dispersion.
From theCambridge English Corpus
velocity measurement
Finally, for quantitative velocity measurement we needed a mechanism to tow a sphere and some type of measuring instrumentation through the flow.
From theCambridge English Corpus
velocity of sound
The gas ahead of the detonation wave is assumed to be at rest with a constant velocity of sound.
From theCambridge English Corpus
velocity profile
Respiratory excursions substantially modify the velocity profile and should be avoided during standard recording.
From theCambridge English Corpus
velocity ratio
Figure 18 shows the robot's path in the presence of uncertainty in the velocity ratio.
From theCambridge English Corpus
velocity variation
This magnitude of mean velocity variation corresponded to a mean shear rate of 0.87 s-l.
From theCambridge English Corpus
vertical velocity
The usual technique for analysing the problem defined above starts with the derivation of a single equation for the vertical velocity component.
From theCambridge English Corpus
wind velocity
However, the upper range of wind velocity cannot be predicted.
