SOME CHARACTERIZATIONS OF EULER SPIRALS IN E3
SOME CHARACTERIZATIONS OF EULER SPIRALS IN E3
In this study, some characterizations of Euler spirals in E3 1 have been presented by using their main property that their curvatures are linear. Moreover, discussing some properties of Bertrand curves and helices, the relationship between these special curves in E3 1 have been investigated with di erent theorems and examples. The approach we used in this paper is useful in understanding the role of Euler spirals in E3 1 in di erential geometry.
