Examples

“The curve so formed is a catenarian curve, and, when inverted, delineates the curve of a type of arch better able to resist forces of destruction than the earlier semicircular arch. Investigators who followed Galilei and studied the catenarian arch mathematically were able to show that a simple catenarian outline was formed by the chan suspeneded as already described, the length of the chain depending upon the required span and rise of the arch.”

“a catenarian curve/arch”

“Each universally catenarian domain is catenarian and, hence, LFD.”
