Russian term

совпадать с положительным направлением

Russian to English Science Science (general) scientific writing
Вектор поляризации совпадает с положительным направлением оси x.

То есть, вектор направлен туда же (в том же, а не противоположном направлении), куда и ось x. Так? Как это грамотно выразить по-английски?

to coincide with positive direction

coincide - to occupy the same place in space ; to occupy exactly corresponding or equivalent positions on a scale or in a series

positive direction. (мат.) положительное направление
Example sentence:

The usual convention is to make the positive coordinate axis coincide with the flood (landward) direction and the negative coordinate axis coincide with the ebb (seaward) direction.

to make the positive direction of x coincident with the positive direction of a, the positive direction of c, coincides with the positive direction of b

to coinside (comply) with positive direction

Depends upon the context: If the process happens by itself, than it'll be 'coinside', but if the positive direction for the vector to go is determined in advance, than it'll be 'comply'

Так ведь о совпадении векторов говорит определение линии как ВЕКТОР поляризации и слово "положительный"
Example sentence:

So, if you want to know how you can achieve vertical-align functionality the ... This must be the trickiest part of the vertical-align functionality to be ...

21 Apr 2009 ... There is a belief (and evidence) of astronomical alignment, although it is not as clear as the alignment of Stonehenge with the sun, ...

Note from asker:
"aligned with" не говорит нам о том, что направления совпадают.
Peer comment(s):

neutral IronDog : вас конечно поймут, и все же так говорят о векторах, которые совпадают по направлению в результате некоего процесса, как например магнетизация. Вектора выстраиваются, чтобы принять направление. Alignment - выстраивание, подравнивание. Coincides is better.

"converge" - (of lines) to come towards and meet at one point .Try to Google "convergent lines"

neutral Victor Zagria : to converge, сходиться в точке, пересекаться и тп. Здесь же не сходящиеся, а единонаправленные , идущие параллельно векторы!

coincides/is in line with the positive direction...

We have a definite article in English, and the use of it is NOT optional. Coincide is spelt with two c's.
