Abstract :In this work, we aim to develop classical Euler-Bernoulli elastic curves in a non-Euclidean space. So, we study the curvature energy action under some boundary conditions in the Galilean $3-$ space $G_{3}$. Then, we derive the Euler-Lagrange equation for bending energy functional acting on suitable curves in $G_{3}$. We solve this differential equation by using some solving methods in applied mathematics. Finally, we give an example for elastic curves in Galilean $3-$space $G_{3}$.
