An Approach for Designing a Surface Pencil Through a Given Geodesic Curve

Abstract

In the present paper, we propose a new method to construct a surface interpolating a given curve as the geodesic curve of it. Also, we analyze the conditions when the resulting surface is a ruled surface. In addition, developablity along the common geodesic of the members of surface family are discussed. Finally, we illustrate this method by presenting some examples.
