one has to differentiate the spatial coordinates and of the Lorentz transformation with respect to and , from which the transformation of three-velocity (also called velocity-addition formula) between and follows, and eventually by another differentiation with respect to and the transformation of three-acceleration between and follows. Starting from , this procedure gives the transformation where the accelerations are parallel (x-direction) or perpendicular (y-, z-direction) to the velocity:
