We prove that any strongly regular Weingarten surface in Euclidean space carries locally geometric principal parameters. The basic theorem states that any strongly regular Weingarten surface is determined up to a motion by its structural…
We consider skew ruled surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space and some geometrically distinguished families of curves on them whose normal curvature has a concrete form. The aim of this paper is to find and classify all ruled…
We study ruled surfaces in R3 which are obtained from dual spher- ical indicatrix curves of dual Frenet vector fields. We find the Gaussian and mean curvatures of the ruled surfaces and give some results of being Wein- garten surface.
We introduce a new class of surfaces in Euclidean $3$-space, called surfaces of osculating circles, using the concept of osculating circle of a regular curve. These surfaces contain a uniparametric family of planar lines of curvature. In…
In this study, we give the relationships between the conical curvatures of ruled surfaces drawn by the unit vectors of the ruling, central normal and central tangent of a regular ruled surface in the Euclidean -space. We obtain the…

Weingarten surfaces are those whose principal curvatures satisfy a functional relation, whose set of solutions is called the curvature diagram or the W-diagram of the surface. Making use of the notion of geometric linear momentum of a plane…

In this paper we study surfaces in Euclidean 3-space that satisfy a Weingarten condition of linear type as $\kappa_1=m \kappa_2 +n$, where $m$ and $n$ are real numbers and $\kappa_1$ and $\kappa_2$ denote the principal curvatures at each…
We prove that the natural principal parameters on a given Weingarten surface are also natural principal parameters for the parallel surfaces of the given one. As a consequence of this result we obtain that the natural PDE of any Weingarten…
