A small charge added to the purchase price and subtracted from the selling price by the dealer for odd-lot quantities.

A running shoe term. May also be used in cross-training and hiking footwear. Describes the difference between the heel height (midsole and outsole) and forefoot height (midsole and outsole) of a shoe.

1640s, from Medieval Latin differentialis, from Latin differentia (see difference). Related: Differentially.

A discount offered by a carrier that faces a service time disadvantage over a route.

The difference between two prices. A large and increasing percentage of all oil transactions are effected on the basis of differentials, also known as spreads, rather than outright flat prices.

adj. Distinctive.

In expatriate compensation, a differential describes an amount of money used to compensate for the discrepancies in costs between the home and the assignment location.

An amount added or deducted from base rate to make a rate to or from some other point or via another route.

An amount added or deducted from base rate to make a rate to or from some other point or via another route. A discount offered by a carrier that faces a service time disadvantage over a route.

an infinitesimally small change in a variable, represented by d, as in dx, or dy. differentiation

A special gearbox designed so that the torque fed into it is split and delivered to two outputs that can turn at different speeds. Differentials within axles are designed to split torque evenly; howev [..]

the differential gear in an automobile etc a qualitative or quantitative difference between similar or comparable things

The fraction of a point added to the purchase price or subtracted from the sale price of odd lot orders. The charge represents compensation to the dealer/specialist for executing the odd lot order.

(n) the result of mathematical differentiation; the instantaneous change of one quantity relative to another; df(x)/dx(n) a quality that differentiates between similar things(n) a bevel gear that perm [..]

The part of the power train that permits one wheel to turn at a different rate of speed from the other, as occurs when going around a turn.

A device - usually made of gears - that divides the torque between a vehicle’s driving wheels and permits the wheels to turn at different speeds. This is especially important when negotiating a corner [..]

Distance between trip point (or force) and reset point (or force).

A differential compensates for the difference in wheel speeds on the driven axle. The wheels on the same axle turn at different speeds when a vehicle is cornering because the wheel on the inside of the bend has a shorter distance to cover than the wheel on the outside, causing the outside wheel to turn faster. Compensating for this difference in sp [..]

differential compensates for the difference in wheel speeds on the driven axle. The wheels on the driven axle turn at different speeds when the vehicle is cornering and the wheel on the inside of the bend has a shorter distance to cover than the wheel on the outside, causing the outside wheel to turn faster. Compensating for this difference in spee [..]

A mechanical gearbox or fluid coupling that allows wheels to rotate at different speeds. Usually located on an axle, it allows the outside wheels to turn faster than the inside wheels during cornering [..]

A differential is a device that can be used to do two mainly different things: either it can be used to transfer power from the transmission (or transfer gearbox in case of a 4WD vehicle) to the drivi [..]

A gear system that transfers power from the driveshaft (or the transmission in a front-wheel-drive car) to the driving axles. It permits the outer driving wheel to turn faster than the inner when the [..]

This part distributes power from the engine to the wheels. For example, differentials within the axles of rear-wheel drives are designed to split torque evenly.

Element of transmission located between the gearbox and driven wheels. The differential accommodates the speed difference between left and right wheels when cornering. A further differential on 4-whee [..]

A device that splits the engine torque two ways allowing each output to spin at a different speed.

A differential is a device, usually using gears, which is connecting three shafts or chains, through which it transmits torque and rotation.

Analysis of word concepts by the Association of polar adjectives, e.g., good-bad, with the concept, Father. The adjectives are usually scaled in 7 steps. The subject's placement of the concept on [..]

Set of gears that transfers the power from the drive shaft to the drive wheels and allows those wheels to turn at different speeds.

In performing the blood count, a total of 100 cells are counted. The percent of each type found in these 100 cells is the cell "differential" for each type.

A set of mechanical gears that eqaulises the power between the left and right drive wheels, particularly when cornering, when the outside wheel travels further than the inside wheel.

The difference between cut-in and cutout temperature or pressure.

An adjustment to the price of oil or natural gas from an established spot market price to reflect differences in the quality and/or location of oil or natural gas.

pressure sticking

The temperature or pressure difference between cut-in and cut-out temperature or pressure of a control.

The relative proportion of white blood cell types composing the total white blood cell count. Most often identified based on staining characteristics or cells size and granularity. The major types of mature white blood cells in the circulation are Neutrophil, Eosinophils, Basophils (the first 3 collective called Granulocytes), Lymphocytes, and Mono [..]
