  • We defined and studied a naturally extended hyperbolic space (see [1] and [2]). In this study, we describe Sforza's formula [7] and Santal$\acute{o}$'s formula [6], which were rediscovered and later discussed by many mathematicians (Milnor [4], Su$\acute{a}$rez-Peir$\acute{o}$ [8], J. Murakami and Ushijima [5], and Mednykh [3]) in the spherical space in an elementary way. Thereafter, using the extended hyperbolic space, we apply the same method to prove their results in the hyperbolic space.

  • In this study, we obtain the spherical images of minimal curves in the complex space in ℂ4 which are obtained by translating Cartan frame vector fields to the centre of hypersphere, and present their properties such as becoming isotropic cubic, pseudo helix, and spherical involutes. Also, we examine minimal curves which are characterized by a system of differential equations.

  • In this study, we investigate the explicit characterization of spherical curves using the Flc (Frenet like curve) frame in Euclidean 3-space. Firstly, the axis of curvature and the osculating sphere of a polynomial space curve are calculated using Flc frame invariants. It is then shown that the axis of curvature is on a straight line. The position vector of a spherical curve is expressed with curvatures connected to the Flc frame. Finally, a differential equation is obtained from the third order, which characterizes a spherical curve.

  • Many interesting properties of a space curve C in E$^3$ may be investigated by means of the concept of spherical indicatrix of tangent, principal normal, or binormal, to C. The purpose of the present paper is to derive the representations of the Frenet frame field., curvature, and torsion of spherical indicatrix to C in terms of the quantities associated with C. Furthermore, several interesting properties of spherical indicatrix are found in the present paper.

  • In this paper, using pseudo-spherical Frenet frame of pseudo-spherical curves in hyperbolic space, we define the notion of the structure functions on the non-developable ruled surfaces with timelike ruling. Then we obtain the properties of the structure functions and a complete classification of the non-developable ruled surfaces with timelike ruling in Minkowski 3-space by the theories of the structure functions.

  • In this study, we developed a global ionosphere model based on measurements from a worldwide network of global positioning system (GPS). The total number of the international GPS reference stations for development of ionospheric model is about 100 and the spherical harmonic expansion approach as a mathematical method was used. In order to produce the ionospheric total electron content (TEC) based on grid form, we defined spatial resolution of 2.0 degree and 5.0 degree in latitude and longitude, respectively. Two-dimensional TEC maps were constructed within the interval of one hour, and have a high temporal resolution compared to global ionosphere maps which are produced by several analysis centers. As a result, we could detect the sudden increase of TEC by processing GPS observables on 29 October, 2003 when the massive solar flare took place.

  • Spherical space frame structure with triangular network pattern, which has the various characteristics for the mechanic property, a funtional property, an aesthetic property and so on, has often been used as one of the most efficient space structures. It is expected that this type will be used widely in large-span structural roofs. But because this structure is made of network by combination of line elements there me many nodes therefore, the structure behavior is very complicated and there can be an overall collapse of structure by buckling phenomenon if the external force reaches a limitation. This kind of buckling is due to geometric shape, network pattern, the number of layer and so on, of structure. Therefore spherical space frame with triangle network pattern have attracted many designers and researchers attention all over the world. The number of layer of space frame is divided in to the simgle, double, multi layer. That is important element which is considered deeply in the beginning of structural design. The buckling characteristics of single-layer model and double-layer model for the spherical space frame structure with triangular network pattern are evaluated and the buckling loads of these types are compared with investigation their structural efficiency in this study.

  • We extend the octree subdivision process from Cartesian coordinates to spherical coordinates to develop more efficient space-partitioning structure for surface models. As an application of the proposed structure, we apply the octree subdivision in spherical coordinates ("S-Octree") to geometry compression in progressive mesh coding. Most previous researches on geometry-driven progressive mesh compression are devoted to improve predictability of geometry information. Unlike this, we focus on the efficient information storage for the space-partitioning structure. By eliminating void space at initial stage and aligning the R axis for the important components in geometry information, the S-Octree improves the efficiency in geometry information coding. Several meshes are tested in the progressive mesh coding based on the S-Octree and the results for performance parameters are presented.
