A Study on Generalized Tubes

In this paper, we consider generalized tubes, which we refer to in the paper as hereafter GTs, according to q-frame in Euclidean space $E^{3}$. First, we give a parametric representation of directional generalized tubes (DGTs). Since GT class is divided by two important subclasses, we investigate geometric properties of these two classes with respect to the q-frame.

Keywords:

Adapted frame, Frenet frame, Generalized tubes.,
