ON THE MOTION OF THE FRENET VECTORS AND TIMELIKE RULED SURFACES IN THE MINKOWSKI 3-SPACE.
Abstract
In this paper, we obtained the distribution parameter of a
timelike ruled surface generated by a timelike straight line in Frenet
trihedron moving along a space-like curve. We show that the timelike
ruled surface is developable if and only if the base curve is a helix
(inclened curve). Furthermore, some theorems are given for the special
cases which the line is being the principal normal and binormal of the
base curve. In addition, it is shown that when the base curve is the same
as the striction curve, the ruled surface is not developable.
