#curved
- Archaic bent — Having been bent, curved, flexed, or folded from a straight position into an angular one; a malleable object or material whose geometric shape was modified through the application of a mechanical force. It represents the past participle form of the regional verb 'adoi', used today extremely rarely, exclusively in literary texts reconstituting the speech of past craftsmen.
- Anseiform — Presenting the shape of a loop, handle, or lasso; having a curved or arched geometric configuration. In comparative anatomy and zoology, the term describes organs, blood vessels, excretory ducts, or bony and cuticular structures whose anatomical trajectory forms a tight loop before connecting with another structural segment.
- Arched — Having a curved, bent, or vaulted shape resembling an arch; a structural or geometric element specially configured to distribute weight or to follow a concave or convex trajectory. In architecture, it describes an opening, ceiling, or bridge supported by mechanical arches.
- Arched — Having undergone the process of arciuire; an object, construction element, or material that features an intentionally curved, bent, convex, or arched shape. In a structural sense, it describes a component in a state of constant elastic tension or an architectural element such as a vault or arch that distributes load weight toward the supporting pillars.
- Arcuate — Having a curved, bent, or vaulted shape resembling an arc; exhibiting a continuous arched geometric line. In architecture, it describes a structure supported by curved elements or a door/window opening topped by an arch. In anatomy, the term is used to define various structural formations, ligaments, or arteries that follow a curved trajectory (such as the arcuate artery of the foot).
- Arched — Having undergone the process of arching; an object, structural element, or geometric profile brought into the shape of an arc, curved or bent with microscopic precision. In a functional sense, it describes the final state of a structurally tensioned elastic body (such as a bow ready for shooting) or the curved outer appearance of architectural components used to embellish monumental building facades.
