Which term describes the distance required to accelerate to V1 with all engines at takeoff power, experience an engine failure at V1, and abort the takeoff and bring the airplane to a stop using braking action only?

Accelerate-stop distance is the total runway length needed to reach V1 with all engines at takeoff power, then abort the takeoff at V1 and bring the airplane to a stop using braking only. V1 is the speed at which a decision to abort must be made; if you abort at or before V1, you can stop on the remaining runway with maximum braking. The calculation assumes no thrust reversers or other aiding devices—only wheel braking—so it reflects the distance required for a complete stop after an aborted takeoff at V1. This is why it matches the scenario described: an engine failure at V1 followed by stopping the airplane using braking action only.
