* Catenary arch kiln, typically used for the firing of pottery using salt, these by their form ( a catenary arch ) tend to retain their shape over repeated heating and cooling cycles, whereas other types require extensive metalwork supports.

*" Catenary " at Visual Dictionary of Special Plane Curves

* Catenary ( or " chain "), the shape of a hanging flexible cable when supported at its ends and acted upon by a uniform gravitational force

Catenary wires are kept at a mechanical tension because the pantograph causes oscillations in the wire and the wave must travel faster than the train to avoid producing standing waves that would cause wire breakage.

Catenary arches are often used in the construction of kilns.

* Catenary Demonstration Experiment – An easy way to demonstrate the Mathematical properties of a cosh using the hanging cable effect.

* Catenary curve derived – The shape of a catenary is derived, plus examples of a chain hanging between 2 points of unequal height, including C program to calculate the curve.

A floating wind turbine moored by Catenary # Anchoring_of_marine_vessels | catenary cables tied to fixed foundation points on the seafloor.

The French Wikipedia article states that it is three times more expensive than the Catenary system.

Two common types of engineered design for anchoring floating structures include tension-leg and catenary loose mooring systems.

leg mooring systems have vertical tethers under tension providing large restoring moments in pitch and roll.

Bottom founded structure are lowered to the seabed by de-ballasting ( see for instance Condeep or Cranefree ), whilst floating structures are held in position with substantial mooring systems.

Such moorings are better suited to rocky bottoms where other mooring systems do not hold well.

* Multiple anchor mooring systems use two or more ( often three ) light weight temporary-style anchors set in an equilateral arrangement and all chained to a common center from which a conventional rode extends to a mooring buoy.

Kite types, kite mooring, and kite applications result in a wide variety of kite control systems.

The company delivers products such as fairleads and anchor winches used in the mooring of ships, floating platforms and drilling rigs, and complete systems for loading and offloading of oil and gas between oil producing platforms and big tank vessels.

A third form of mooring system is the ballasted catenary configuration, created by adding multiple-tonne weights hanging from the midsection of each anchor cable in order to provide additional cable tension and therefore increase stiffness of the above-water floating structure.

Nonetheless, the Navy created a floating Mobile Riverine Base ( MRB ) by assigning barracks ships, and barrage barges ( non-self propelled ) to house both Army and Navy personnel, provide communications and staff support, mooring and support facilities on Ammi pontoons alongside, and refit, rearm, and resupply stores.

** Standard sea-floor mooring technology is used to deploy upward looking sonar ( ULS ) to provide a view of ice thickness as ice drifts through the field of view of the ULS.

The station and ferry terminal was converted into Frink Park, a public venue for performances and mooring for visiting ships, while the rail yards were incorporated into the property of the Frink-America snowplow factory, which has since closed and been converted into public space pending redevelopment.

Among the various proposals was a long main runway, an integral freight yard and railway station, and a semi enclosed mooring for flying boats and other amphibious aircraft.

Another April Fools ' Day story that ran in the same paper suggested the tower would be redeveloped as a mooring station for airships.

The station is composed of a main building-equipped with reverse osmosis salt water desalination system, photovoltaics system and satellite communications system ; deposits and a mooring dock.

Nathan decided to intentionally sink the ship in international waters on November 28, 1993 after various promises of a broadcast license and mooring in Jaffa Port failed to come to fruition, and he closed the station due to heavy losses and following the signing of the Oslo Peace Accords, which he assumed was validation of the station's mission.

A kedge anchor is a light anchor used for kedging, or more commonly on yachts for mooring quickly or in benign conditions.

A stream anchor, which is usually heavier than a kedge anchor, can be used for kedging or warping in addition to temporary mooring and restraining stern movement in tidal conditions or in waters where vessel movement needs to be restricted, such as rivers and channels.

Using two anchors set approximately 45 ° apart, or wider angles up to 90 °, from the bow is a strong mooring for facing into strong winds.

A tension leg mooring system for a wind turbine: left-hand tower-bearing structure ( grey ) is free floating, the right-hand structure is pulled by the tensioned cables ( red ) down towards the seabed anchors ( light-grey )

The geography of Windward Point is such that there are many coves and peninsulas along the bay shoreline providing ideal areas for mooring ships.

The holes were also used for belaying mooring lines and sail sheets.

Such a structure includes one or more berths ( mooring locations ), and may also include piers, warehouses, or other facilities necessary for handling the ships.

In the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads, a dyke may be a drainage ditch or a narrow artificial channel off a river or broad for access or mooring, some longer dykes being named, e. g. Candle Dyke.

The restored section is now the mooring for narrowboats and a waterside park open to the public.

They were positioned close to each other and adjacent to the mooring mast for the airship.

As a result, the newsreels do not show the mooring mast for the airship to be moored ( other mooring masts appear in the background in many of the reels ), unlike many of the press photographs which were taken further away and show the mast.

In his book Coot Club ( 1934 ) he describes the busy scene on the river at Wroxham Bridge with numerous boats – a wherry, punts, motor cruisers and sailing yachts – jostling for a mooring.

The village lies at the end of Thurne Dyke, a popular mooring, not least because of Thurne windpump, which became known locally as Morse's Mill, after the late Bob Morse, who purchased it to prevent it from being sold for scrap.

There are no staithes on the shore of the broad for public mooring and no shore based facilities.

The Nome Small Boat Harbor has a depth of 10 feet ( MLLW ) and offers protected mooring for recreational and fishing vessels alongside 2 floating docks.

This protected body of water provides ample mooring for small and large boats.

Port Huron operates the largest municipal marina system in the state and has five separate locations for boat mooring.

It is now used by the scouts for canoeing, rappelling and the mooring of a small narrowboat.

Between 1 October and 31 March powered boats are allowed as far as Mill Pool, but few people take advantage of this, as there are very few public mooring places along the Backs, and the river is too narrow and the bridges too low to afford easy passing or turning for many boats.

The moorings on the commons in Cambridge ( Jesus Green, Midsummer Common and Stourbridge Common ) are reserved by the City Council for holders of its long-term mooring permits.
