In this paper, we define new quaternionic associated curves called quaternionic principal-direction curves and quaternionic principal-donor curves. We give some properties and relationships between Frenet vectors and curvatures of these curves. For spatial quaternionic curves, we give characterizations for quaternionic helices and quaternionic slant helices by means of their associated curves.

In this study, we introduce the adjoint curves of framed curves. We examine some characterizations of adjoint curve of a framed curve. In addition, we give the conditions for framed curves and adjoint curves to be Bertrand and Mannheim curves. Then, we introduce adjoint curves of Frenet-type framed curves and give ruled surfaces related to adjoint curves. Finally, we create normal and binormal surfaces of the framed adjoint curves and obtain some characterizations of these surfaces and we support by the results with figures.

Rational parameterization of curves and surfaces is one of the main topics in computer-aided geometric design because of their computational advantages. Pythagorean hodograph (PH) curves and Minkowski Pythagorean hodograph (MPH) curves have attracted many researcher's interest because they provide for rational representation of their offset curves in Euclidean space and Minkowski space, respectively. In [10], Kim presented the characterization of the PH curves in the Euclidean space and analyzed the relation between the class of PH curves and the class of rational curves. In this paper, we extend the characterization of PH curves in [10] into that of MPH curves in the general Minkowski space and consider some generalized MPH curves satisfying this characterization.

Magnetic curves are the trajectories of charged particals which are influenced by magnetic fields and they satisfy the Lorentz equation. It is important to find relationships between magnetic curves and other special curves. This paper is a study of magnetic curves and this kind of relationships. We give the relationship between β-magnetic curves and Mannheim, Bertrand, involute-evolute curves and we give some geometric properties about them. Then, we study this subject for γ-magnetic curves. Finally, we give an evaluation of what we did.

CAGD(Computer Aided Geometric Design) is a branch of applied mathematics concerned with algorithms for the design of smooth curves and surfaces and for their efficient mathematical representation. The representation is used for the computation of the curves and surfaces, as well as geometrical quantities of importance such as curvatures, intersection curves between two surfaces and offset surfaces. The $B\acute{e}zier$ curves, B-spline, rational $B\acute{e}zier$ curves and NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) are basically and widely used in CAGD. The definitions and properties of these curves are presented in this paper. And a brief history of study on the bound for derivative of rational curves in CAGD is also presented.

We present a new proof of the characterization theorem for Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph curves in the Minkowski spaces $\mathbf{R}^{n+1,m}$. For an polynomial curves $\mathbf{s}(t)=(x_1(t),...,\;x_{n+m}(t))$, we also find Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph curves $\mathbf{r}(t)=(x_0(t),\;x_1(t),...,\;x_{n+m}(t))$. In case m=0, Minkowski Pythagorean-hodograph curves become Pythagorean-hodograph curves in the Euclidean spaces $\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ and Theorems in this paper hold for these Pythagorean-hodograph curves.

In this thesis, we consider isoparametric curves of quadratic F-B$\acute{e}$zier curves. F-B$\acute{e}$zier curves unify C-B$\acute{e}$zier curves whose basis is {sint, cos t, t, 1} and H-B$\acute{e}$zier curves whose basis is {sinht, cosh t, t,1}. Thus F-B$\acute{e}$zier curves are more useful in Geometric Modeling or CAGD(Computer Aided Geometric Design). We derive the relation between the quadratic F-B$\acute{e}$zier curves and the quadratic rational B$\acute{e}$zier curves. We also obtain the geometric properties of isoparametric curve of the quadratic F-B$\acute{e}$zier curves at both end points and prove the continuity of the isoparametric curve.

In the present paper, we consider a position vector of an arbitrary curve in the three-dimensional Galilean space $G_3$. Furthermore, we give some conditions on the curvatures of this arbitrary curve to study special curves and their Smarandache curves. Finally, in the light of this study, some related examples of these curves are provided and plotted.

We show many examples of curves on the unit 2-sphere $S^2(1)$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and the unit 3-sphere $S^3(1)$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$. We study whether its curves are Bertrand curves or spherical Bertrand curves and provide some examples illustrating the resultant curves.

This paper presents a generation of analytical fragility curves for bridge. The analytical fragility curves are constructed on the basis of nonlinear dynamic analysis. Two-parameter lognormal distribution functions are used to represent the fragility curves with the parameters estimated by the maximum likelihood method. To demonstrate the development of analytical fragility curves, two of representative bridges with a precast prestressed continuous deck in the Memphis. Tennessee area are used.
