sinusoidal

This is what it is usually called. Some wiseguys will point out that
-oidal just means "sort of like". For maximum clarity, you can
instead write "sinus shaped"

Peer comment(s):

agree Paul Lambert : I agree. By the way "oidal" does mean "shaped" literally, I thought. Could be wrong. However I think "sinusoidal shaped" is redundant.
