A catenary is the curve formed by slack wire - telephone cables are a good example. So a catenary tow is one where, simply put, the towline is attached to shackles of anchor cable in order to ensure that a belly of towline (providing spring) hangs between the two ships.
Catenary

The general formula of a catenary is y = a*cosh(x/a) = a/2*(ex/a + e-x/a) cosh is the hyperbolic cosine function

The Catenary and Parabola are different curves that look similar; they are both "U" shaped and symmetrical, increasing infinitely on both sides to a minimum.
If: A=Horizontal distance betwen ends (at same height) B=Depth of catenary C=radius of curvature at lowest point L=length along catenary M=Mass per unit length Tm=Tension at ends of catenary To=Tension at lowest point. (Also horizontal component of tension at any point) Then: C=To/M, and B=C(cosh(A/2C)-1)
A catenoid is the surface generated by rotating a catenary about its axis of symmetry
A catenary is produced by hanging a chain from two points some distance apart. The equation for a catenary is the hyperbolic cosine. One simple example of a catenary can be found if you look at the power lines running between two poles. A parabola is produced by putting a hanging chain or cable under an equally dispersed load. An example of this can be seen on a suspension bridge, the cable hanging from two towers with the road below hanging from vertical cables attached to the main suspension cables.
apparently, it is called catenoid.
Catenary taping is a technique commonly used by athletes to provide support and stability to muscles and joints. It involves applying specialized elastic tape in specific patterns along muscles and tendons to help reduce pain, improve performance, and prevent injuries. The tape is designed to mimic the elasticity and thickness of human skin, allowing for a wide range of motion while providing support.
One is the "Gateway To The West" arch in St. Louis, Missouri. It is also possible McDonalds Restaurants have a double inverted catenary arch shape. It resembles a letter M in script form.
