In contrast, on a suspended deck bridge (whether "simple" or not) the main cables follow a parabolic curve.

This data is then reduced and graphed against an ideal parabolic curve.

One will travel in a parabolic curve and the other falls in a straight path to the floor.

So thus we get a parabolic curve.

Crime, too, follows just the same parabolic curve.

Hence, matching trajectory data points to a parabolic curve would make sense.

From its center, two bright objects shot up in a parabolic curve, trailing narrow white streaks.

A train will have a parabolic braking curve as follows:

"When interest rates go up in parabolic curves, as they are now," he said, "it usually indicates that the business cycle is near a peak."

Of particular interest is the parabolic curve.
