curvative

Having slightly curved margins or sides.

curvative force

The first partial derivative of a function that describes a surface.

Examination of waves larger than 60 metres will depend on the accuracy with which the spatial derivatives (tilts, curvatives, etc.) of the surface can be obtained.

This equation is descriptive of a Cornu spiral, a spiral whose curvative increases linearly with arclength.

One of the curved walls of the stomach.

According to Dr. Leuf, when water is taken into the full or partly full stomach, it does not mingle with the food, as we are taught, but passes along quickly between the food and lesser curvative toward the pylorus, through which it passes into the intestines.

Hyperperistalsis (gastric), with an increase of the number (three or more ) and depth of the waves on both curvatives, is seen typically in obstructing lesions of the duodenum.

A convexity or concavity in a surface.

The five brooms have independent adjustments to conform, to curvatives in the road.

An artist who perceives curvatives will also get the same impression when looking at the perspective.

A curved deformation.

If the curvative is due to the unequal pull of the muscles supporting the spine, then the indication is to strengthen the weaker muscles until they are fully able to antagonize those of the opposite side.

Within these limits the maximum sale deflection of a beam of uniform curve may be taken as double that of a similar beam in which the curvative under stress, is a parabola.
