Abstract :In this paper, a developable surface with geodesic or line of curvature coordinates is constructed in the Euclidean 3-space. A developable surface is coordinated by two families of parametric curves, base curves insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(directrices); and lines insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(rulings);. Since any part of a straight line on a developable surface is geodesic and line of curvature, we only need to show that the directrices curves are geodesics or lines of curvature to ensure that the developable surface is parameterized by geodesic or line of curvature coordinates. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the directrices curves to be geodesics or lines of curvature are studied. The main results of this paper show that the developable surface with geodesic coordinates is a generalized cylinder, and the developable surface with line of curvature coordinates is a tangent surface.Keywords : Developable surface, geodesic, line of curvature, parametric curves, coordinates
