In this paper, we study the position vector of a developable q-slant ruled surface in the Euclidean 3-space $E^3$ in means of the Frenet frame of a q-slant ruled surface. First, we determinate the natural representations for the striction curve and ruling of a q-slant ruled surface. Then we obtain general parameterization of a developable q-slant ruled surface with respect to the conical curvature of the surface. Finally, we introduce some examples for the obtained result.

In this paper, Fermi-Walker derivative for inextensible flows of curves are researched in 3-dimensional Galilean space G3. Firstly using Frenet and Darboux frame with the help of Fermi-Walker derivative a new approach for these flows are expressed, then some results are obtained for these flows to be Fermi-Walker transported in G3.

In 1906, da Rios, a student of Leivi-Civita, wrote a master's thesis modeling the motion of a vortex in a viscous fluid by the motion of a curve propagating in $R^3$, in the direction of its binormal with a speed equal to its curvature. Much later, in 1971 Hasimoto showed the equivalence of this system with the non-linear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equation (NLS) $$q_t=i(q_{ss}+\frac{1}{2}{\mid}q{\mid}^2q$$. In this paper, we use the same idea as Terng used in her lecture notes but different technique to extend the above relation to the case of $R^3$, and obtained an analogous equation that $$q_t=i[q_{ss}+(\frac{1}{2}{\mid}q{\mid}^2+1)q]$$.

Mannheim introduced the concept of a pair of curves, called as Mannheim partner curves, in 1878. Until now, Mannheim partner curves have been studied widely in the literature. In this study, we take into account of this concept according to Positional Adapted Frame (PAF) for the particles moving in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space. We introduce a new type special trajectory pairs which are called Mannheim partner P-trajectories in the Euclidean 3-space. The relationships between the PAF elements of this pair are investigated. Also, the relations between the Serret-Frenet basis vectors of Mannheim partner P-trajectories are given. Afterwards, we obtain the necessary conditions for one of these trajectories to be an osculating curve and for other to be a rectifying curve. Moreover, we provide an example including an illustrative figure.

In this paper we define a Myller configuration in a Finsler space and use some special configurations to obtain results about Finsler subspaces. Let $F^{n}$ = (M,F) be a Finsler space, with M a real, differentiable manifold of dimension n. Using the pull back bundle $({\pi}^{*}TM,\tilde{\pi},\widetilde{TM})$ of the tangent bundle $(TM,{\pi},M)$ by the mapping $\tilde{\pi}={\pi}/TM$ and the Cartan Finsler connection of a Finsler space, we obtain an orthonormal frame of sections of ${\pi}^{*}TM$ along a regular curve in $\widetilde{TM}$ and a system of invariants, geometrically associated to the Myller configuration. The fundamental equations are written in a very simple form and we prove a fundamental theorem. Important lines in a Finsler subspace are defined like special lines in a Myller configuration, geometrically associated to the subspace: auto parallels, lines of curvature, asymptotes. Torse forming vector fields with respect to the Cartan Finsler connection are characterized by means of the invariants of the Frenet frame of a versor field along a curve, and the new notion of torse forming vector fields in the sense of Myller is introduced. The particular cases of concurrence and parallelism in the sense of Myller are completely studied, for vector fields from the distribution $T^m$ of the Myller configuration and also from the normal distribution $T^p$.

This paper develops in detail the differential geometry of ruled surfaces from two perspectives, and presents the underlying relations which unite them. Both scalar and dual curvature functions which define the shape of a ruled surface are derived. Explicit formulas are presented for the computation of these functions in both formulations of the differential geometry of ruled surfaces. Also presented is a detailed analysis of the ruled surface which characterizes the shape of a general ruled surface in the same way that osculating circle characterizes locally the shape of a non-null Lorentzian curve.

A curve is rectifying if it lies on a moving hyperplane orthogonal to its curvature vector. In this work, we extend the main result of [Chen 2017, Tamkang J. Math. 48, 209] to any space dimension: we prove that rectifying curves are geodesics on hypercones. We later use this association to characterize rectifying curves that are also slant helices in three-dimensional space as geodesics of circular cones. In addition, we consider curves that lie on a moving hyperplane normal to (i) one of the normal vector fields of the Frenet frame and to (ii) a rotation minimizing vector field along the curve. The former class is characterized in terms of the constancy of a certain vector field normal to the curve, while the latter contains spherical and plane curves. Finally, we establish a formal mapping between rectifying curves in an (m + 2)-dimensional space and spherical curves in an (m + 1)-dimensional space.

In the recent papers, S'anchez-Reyes [Appl. Math. Model. 40 (2016), 1676-1682] described the method for finding a minimal surface through a geodesic, and Li et al. [Appl. Math. Model. 37 (2013), 6415-6424] studied the approximation of minimal surfaces with a geodesic from Dirichlet function. In the present article, we consider an isoparametric surface generated by Frenet frame of a curve introduced by Wang et al. [Comput. Aided Des. 36 (2004), 447-459], and give the necessary and sufficient condition to satisfy both geodesic of the curve and minimality of the surface. From this, we construct minimal surfaces in terms of constant curvature and torsion of the curve. As a result, we present a new approach for constructions of the minimal surfaces from a prescribed closed geodesic and unclosed geodesic, and show some new examples of minimal surfaces with a circle and a helix as a geodesic. Our approach can be used in design of minimal surfaces from geodesics.

In this paper, we define timelike curves in R⁴₂ and characterize such curves in terms of Frenet frame. Also, we examine the timelike helices of R⁴₂, taking into account their curvatures. In addition, we study timelike slant helices, timelike B₁-slant helices, timelike B₂-slant helices in four dimensional semi-Euclidean space, R⁴₂. And then we obtain an approximate solution for the timelike B₁ slant helix with Taylor matrix collocation method.

We present a new technique for multilevel editing of hierarchical B-spline curves. At each level, control points of a displacement function are expressed in the rotation minimizing frames (RMFs) [1] which are computed on nodal points of the curve at previous level. When the curve is edited at previous level, the corresponding RMFs are updated and the control points of the displacement function at current level are applied to the new RMFs, which maintains the relative details of the curve at current level to those of previous level. We demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed technique using several experimental results.
