A somatogravic illusion is a false sensation of body tilt that results from perceiving as vertical the direction of non-vertical gravito-inertial acceleration or force.
- if you said "A somatogravic illusion can also be a false sensation of acceleration that results from perceiving as vertical the direction of non-vertical gravito-inertial acceleration or force" we'd be there!

PS A simulator has no wheelbrakes.so "applying brakes changes the perceived acceleration" just cannot happen. How else do you think you can "change the perceived acceleration"?
