| radial acceleration | The centripetal acceleration of a particle or vehicle moving along a curved path at a constant velocity; e.g., turning a curve in an automobile, pulling out of a dive, or performing a loop manoeuvre in an aircraft. In aviation, acceleration varies directly with the square of the air speed and inversely with the radius of the turn (a = V2/r, where V is air speed and r is radius of turn). (05 Mar 2000) |

| acceleration | The act of accelerating, or the state of being accelerated; increase of motion or action; as, a falling body moves toward the earth with an acceleration of velocity; opposed to retardation. "A period of social improvement, or of intellectual advancement, contains within itself a principle of acceleration." (I. <astronomy> Taylor) Acceleration of the moon, the increase of the moon's mean motion in its orbit, in consequence of which its period of revolution is now shorter than in ancient times. Acceleration and retardation of the tides. See Priming of the tides, under Priming. Diurnal acceleration of the fixed stars, the amount by which their apparent diurnal motion exceeds that of the sun, in consequence of which they daily come to the meridian of any place about three minutes fifty-six seconds of solar time earlier than on the day preceding. Acceleration of the planets, the increasing velocity of their motion, in proceeding from the apogee to the perigee of their orbits. Origin: L. Acceleratio: cf. F. Acceleration.

| acceleration phase | <cell biology, cell culture> A period of increasing growth before the log phase in a culture of microbes. After the culture is started on a medium, at first there is no growth (the lag phase) and then the microbes start to gradually grow (acceleration phase) until they reach a constant maximum rate of growth (log phase). (15 Jan 1998) |
| angular acceleration | The rate of change of angular velocity; e.g., when a centrifuge rotor is speeding up, or when there is a simultaneous change in velocity and direction, as in an aircraft in a tight spin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| linear acceleration | The rate of change of velocity without a change in direction; e.g., when the speed of an aircraft increases while flying a straight pathway. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial | <botany> Of or pertaining to a radius or ray; consisting of, or like, radii or rays; radiated; as, the radial artery. Radial symmetry. <biology> See Symmetry. Origin: Cf. F. Radial. See Radius. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| radial aplasia-thrombocytopenia syndrome | <syndrome> Aplasia (absence) of the radius (the long bone on the thumb-side of the forearm) and thrombocytopenia (low blood platelets) are key features characterizing this syndrome. There is phocomelia (flipper-limb) with the thumbs always present. The fibula (the smaller bone in the lower leg) is often absent. The risk of bleeding from too few platelets is high in early infancy but lessens with age. The condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive trait with one gene (on a non-sex chromosome) coming from each parent to the child affected with the disease. Alternative names include thrombocytopenia-absent radius syndrome, tar syndrome, and tetraphocomelia-thrombocytopenia syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radial artery | <anatomy, artery> The direct continuation of the brachial trunk, originating at the bifurcation of the brachial artery opposite the neck of the radius. Its branches may be divided into three groups corresponding to the three regions in which the vessel is situated, the forearm, wrist, and hand. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radial border of forearm | An imaginary line running along the outermost extent of the forearm separating anterior and posterior surfaces laterally. Synonym: margo lateralis antebrachii, margo radialis antebrachii, radial border of forearm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial bursa | <anatomy> The synovial sheath that envelops the tendon of the flexor pollicis longus in its course through the carpal canal; it is continuous with the digital sheath of the thumb, the two generally being considered as one sheath. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi flexoris pollicis longi, radial bursa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial clubhand | Clubhand with angular deviation towards radial side of limb. See: manus valga. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral artery | <anatomy, artery> The anterior terminal branch of the profunda brachii, anastomosing with the radial recurrent, forming part of the articular network of the elbow. Synonym: arteria collateralis radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral ligament | The ligament that connects the lateral epicondyle of the humerus with the annular ligament of the radius. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale radiale, lateral ligament of elbow, radial collateral ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral ligament of elbow | The ligament that connects the lateral epicondyle of the humerus with the annular ligament of the radius. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale radiale, lateral ligament of elbow, radial collateral ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral ligament of wrist | The ligament that extends distally from the styloid process of the radius to the carpal bones. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale carpi radiale, external collateral ligament of wrist, lateral ligament of wrist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial eminence of wrist | A rather large flat eminence on the radial side of the palmar aspect of the wrist, due to the tuberosity of scaphoid and the ridge on the trapezium. Synonym: eminentia carpi radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
