In this paper, we consider the singularities and geometrical properties of timelike developable surfaces with Bishop frame in Minkowski 3-space. Taking advantage of the singularity theory, we give the classification of generic singularities of these developable surfaces. Furthermore, an example of application is given to illustrate the applications of the results.
The present paper is focused on time-like circular surfaces and singularities in Minkowski 3-space. The timelike circular surface with a constant radius could be swept out by moving a Lorentzian circle with its center while following a non-lightlike curve called the spine curve. In the present study, we have parameterized timelike circular surfaces and examined their geometric properties, such as singularities and striction curves, corresponding with those of ruled surfaces. After that, a different kind of timelike circular surface was determined and named the timelike roller coaster surface. Meanwhile, we support the results of this work with some examples.
The approach of the paper is on spacelike circular surfaces in the Minkowski 3-space. A spacelike circular surface is a one-parameter family of Lorentzian circles with a fixed radius regarding a non-null curve, which acts as the spine curve, and it has symmetrical properties. In the study, we have parametrized spacelike circular surfaces and have provided their geometric and singularity properties such as Gaussian and mean curvatures, comparing them with those of ruled surfaces and the classification of singularities. Furthermore, the conditions for spacelike roller coaster surfaces to be flat or minimal surfaces are obtained. Meanwhile, we support the results of the approach with some examples.
In this paper, we give the parametric equation of the Bishop frame for a timelike sweeping surface with a unit speed timelike curve in Minkowski 3-space. We introduce a new geometric invariant to explain the geometric properties and local singularities of this timelike surface. We derive the sufficient and necessary conditions for this timelike surface to be a timelike developable ruled surface. Afterwards, we take advantage of singularity theory to give the classification of singularities of this timelike developable surface. Furthermore, we give some representative examples to show the applications of the theoretical results.
E. Study map is one of the most basic and powerful mathematical tools to study lines in line geometry, it has symmetry property. In this paper, based on the E. Study map, clear expressions were developed for the differential properties of one-parameter Lorentzian dual spherical movements that are coordinate systems independent. This eliminates the requirement of demanding coordinates transformations necessary in the determination of the canonical systems. With the proposed technique, new proofs for Euler–Savary, and Disteli’s formulae were derived.
In this article, we investigate the relationships between the instantaneous invariants of a one-parameter spatial movement and the local invariants of the axodes. Specifically, we provide new proofs for the Euler-Savary and Disteli formulas using the E. Study map in spatial kinematics, showcasing its elegance and efficiency. In addition, we introduce two line congruences and thoroughly analyze their spatial equivalence. Our findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the interplay between spatial movements and axodes, with potential applications in fields such as robotics and mechanical engineering.
