hyperpendward
A hyperpendward refers to a state of extreme directional over-correction or an excessive swing past a central point in a pendular system. It is used both in mechanical contexts to describe physical oscillation and metaphorically to describe systems that have moved too far in one direction after attempting to find balance.
