iso-acceleration contours / contour lines

Although it's not part of the term 'as asked', it may help to note that seismologists usually refer to 'iso-acceleration contours', not 'iso-acceleration curves' - probably because there are lots of other types of 'curve' involved in their calculations/predictions and it helps to be consistent in the terminology.

permitted iso accelerations (in a plane)

It is a definition, in physics
Peer comment(s):

neutral Jennifer Levey : There's nothing in the ST 'as quoted' to justify 'permitted', or 'in a plane'. And you've given a noun, whilst the ST requires an adjective (to qualify 'curvas'). Also, iso-accelerations requires a '-'. Finally (again...) it's not a 'definition'.
