nonpivoting
Stays in place
Nonpivoting describes something that doesn't pivot—doesn't rotate around a fixed point or shift position.
The term appears most often in technical contexts: a nonpivoting bracket stays fixed rather than swinging, a nonpivoting algorithm in mathematics avoids row exchanges during matrix operations.
The nonpivoting design keeps the antenna stable in high winds.
