  • In this treatise, several relationships are improved for the axodes of one-parameter spatial movements. Results are devised in some theorems which characterize many kinematical and geometrical properties of the movements employing the geometrical data of the stationary and movable axodes.

    In the study of spatial movements (kinematics), the analysis of the trajectory of general rigid body movements relies on two factors: the position and orientation of the movable line. The direction of the movable line describes the shape of a cone. The intersection of the cone and a unit sphere, attached at the vertex of the cone, determines a spherical curve known as the spherical indicatrix or image of the line path. The position of the moveable line, relative to a reference point, is specified by a space curve that is commonly known as the image of the line's path.

    However, in spatial movements, it is advisable to take into account the inherent characteristics of the line path while considering ruled surfaces. Moreover, it is established that the instantaneous rotational axis (ISA) of a movable object generates a pair of ruled surfaces, known as the invariable and movable axodes (AX), with the ISA serving as their ruling (creating) in both the invariable and movable spaces, respectively. The AX undergoes rolling and sliding motion in a certain direction, ensuring that the tangential contact within the AX is maintained along the full length of the two matting rulings. These rulings, located in each AX, work together to determine the position of the ISA at any given moment. It is considered that a certain motion results in a unique pencil of AX, and the same applies in the opposite direction. If the axioms of any motion are fulfilled, it implies that the specific movement may be reconstructed without knowledge of the actual components of the mechanism, their configuration, exact dimensions, or the manner in which they are attached. During the process of synthesis, it has been understood that the AX plays a crucial role in both the physical mechanism and the actual movement of its components. There are numerous exceptional written works on the subject, including a variety of treatises; for these, refer to [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8].

    Surprisingly, dual numbers have been employed to ponder the movement of a line space. They may well be the most suitable tools for this purpose. In the context of dual number and screw algebra, the E. Study map states that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the pencil of dual points on the dual unit sphere in the dual 3-space D3 and the pencil of all directed lines in Euclidean 3-space E3. Using this map: a one-parameter set of points (known as a dual curve) on a unit sphere in dual space corresponds to a one-parameter pencil of directed lines (known as a ruled surface) in three-dimensional Euclidean space E3[9,10,11]. Consequently, numerous researchers have made significant efforts to study the curvature properties of ruled surfaces using various methods [12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23]. However, further investigation is required to gain a deeper understanding.

    In this study, we have employed the E. Study map to promptly analyze the kinematic-geometry of one parameter spatial movement. Our research focuses on examining the characteristics of the axodes and comparing them to spherical movements. Consequently, the invariants were deliberated upon and a dual form of the planar Euler-Savary equation was derived. This work aims to elucidate the topic of second-order movement features to foster a comprehensive understanding. Rotations are crucial in various professions, such as in astronomy (the movement of planets) and chemistry (the movement of electrons and the rotation of molecules). The utilization of eigenvector, eigenvalue, and eigenproblem methodologies can provide insights into difficult problems [23].

    In this section, we give some conceptualizations that we will employ in this article [1,2,3,4,10,11]: A directed line (DL) can be identified by a point αL and a normalized orientation vector r of L, that is, r2=1. To gain coordinates for L, one composes the moment vector r=α×r regarding to the origin point in E3. If α is offset by any point y=α+vr, vR on L, this suggest that r is linearly independent of α on L. The vectors r and r are not independent of one another; they fulfil that:

    <r,r>=1,<r,r>=0.

    The six coordinates rξ,rξ(ξ=1,2,3) of r and r are named the normalized Plűcker coordinates of the line L. Hence, the vectors r and r locate L.

    A dual (D) number ˆr is a number r+εr, where r, r in R and ε is a D unit withε0, and ε2=0. Then, the set

    D3={ˆr=r+εr=(ˆr1,ˆr2,ˆr3)}

    with the inner product

    <ˆr,ˆr>=ˆr21+ˆr22+ˆr23

    forms the D 3-space D3. Thereby, a point ˆr has D coordinates

    ˆri=(ri+εri)D.

    If r0, the norm ˆr of ˆr=r+εr is

    ˆr=r+ε<r,r>r,r0.

    So, we may set the D vector ˆr as a D multiplier of a D unit vector (DUV) in the form

    ˆr=ˆrˆs,

    where ˆs is referred to as the axis. The ratio

    h=<r,r>r2

    is known as the pitch along the axis ˆs. If h=0 and r=1, ˆr is a DL, and when h is definite, ˆr is an proper screw. When h, ˆr is named a pair. A D vector with norm equal to one is coined a DUV. Hence, every

    DL  L=(r,r)E3×E3

    is appeared by DUV

    ˆr=r+εr(<r,r>=1,<r,r>=0).

    The DU sphere in D3 is expounded by

    K={ˆrD3ˆr2=ˆr21+ˆr22+ˆr23=1}.

    Then, we have the E. Study's map: The set of points of DU sphere in D3-space is in bijection with the set of all DLs in E3 [10,11].

    Let Km and Kf be two DU spheres. Let ˆ0 be the joint center and two orthonormal D coordinate frames {ˆ0;  ˆe1,ˆe2,ˆe3}, and {ˆ0; ˆf1, ˆf2, ˆf3} be rigidly related with Km and Kf, respectively. We set {ˆ0; ˆf1, ˆf2, ˆf3} as invariable, whereas the members of {ˆ0;  ˆe1,ˆe2,ˆe3} are functions of a real parameter tR (say the time). Then, we say that Km movable with respect to Kf. Such movement is coined a one-parameter D spherical movement, and is indicated by Km/Kf. By setting

    <ˆfξ,ˆeζ>=ˆAξζ

    and putting the D matrix

     (DM)ˆA=(ˆAξζ),

    we can set the E. Study map in the matrix sort as follows:

    Km/Kf:(ˆf1ˆf2ˆf3)=(ˆA11ˆA12ˆA13ˆA21ˆA22ˆA23ˆA31ˆA32ˆA33)(ˆe1ˆe2ˆe3). (3.1)

    The

    DM ˆA:=(ˆAξζ)=(Aξζ)+ε(Aξζ)

    has the property that ˆA1=ˆAt, which means it is an orthogonal DM. This result indicates that the E. Study map is corresponds with an orthogonal DM. Comparable with the family of real orthogonal matrices, the family of D orthogonal 3×3 matrices, denoted by O(D3×3), form a group with matrix multiplication as the group operation (real orthogonal matrices are subgroup of D orthogonal matrices). D orthogonal matrices as understood here then also form a Lie group that is a manifold [6]. The identity element of O(D3×3) is the 3×3 unit matrix. Since the center of the DU sphere in D3 must remain steady, the transformation group in D3 (the image of Euclidean movements in E3) does not hold any translations. Via the E. Study map: If Km and Kf matches to the line spaces Hm and Hf, respectively, then Km/Kf matches the one-parameter spatial movement Hm/Hf. Therefore, Hm is the moveable space against the stationary space Hf in E3. Hence, in order to have the Euclidean movements in D3, we can state the following theorem [10,11]:

    Theorem 3.1. The Euclidean movements in E3 are fulfilled in D3 by 3×3 D orthogonal matrices ˆA=(ˆAξζ), where ˆAˆAt=I, ˆAξζ are D numbers, and I is the 3×3 unit matrix.

    Via Theorem 3.1, the Lie algebra L(OD3×3) of the group O(D3×3) of 3×3 D matrices ˆA is the algebra of skew-symmetric 3×3 D matrices. By differentiation of ˆAˆAt=I3 with respect to tR, we obtain

    ˆAˆAt+(ˆAˆAt)t=0, (3.2)

    where 0 is the 3×3 zero matrix. We deduce from Eq (3.2) the following identification:

    ˆψ(t):=ˆAˆAt=(   0ˆψ3  ˆψ2  ˆψ3   0ˆψ1ˆψ2   ˆψ1   0)(ˆψ1ˆψ2ˆψ3)=ˆψ(t). (3.3)

    Consequently, we may write the vectors from D3 in two ways: as skew-symmetric 3×3 D matrices or as vectors. In what follows we will use both of these likelihood according to which of the two will be more useful in the specified case. Through the movement Km/Kf, the differential velocity vector of a fixed D point ˆx on Km, similar to the real spherical movement [1,2,3,4,5], is

    ˆx=ˆψ׈x, (3.4)

    where

    ˆψ(t)=ψ(t)+εψ(t)

    is the D screw or angular velocity vector of the movement Km/Kf. ψ and ψ, respectively, are the instantaneous rotational differential velocity vector and the instantaneous translational differential velocity vector of the spatial movement Hm/Hf.

    Let

    ˆr=r+εr

    be the ISA associated with ˆψ. Then,

    ˆψ=ψ(1+εh)ˆr, (3.5)

    where h is the pitch of the movement Hm/Hf. By means of Eq (3.1), for ˆψ in Kf, we have

    ˆψf=ˆAˆAt=(   0ˆψ3f  ˆψ2f  ˆψ3f   0ˆψ1fˆψ2f   ˆψ1f   0)(ˆψ1fˆψ2fˆψ3f)=ˆψf. (3.6)

    Once again, the expression of ˆψm in Km follows from

    ˆψm=ˆAtˆA=(   0ˆψ3m  ˆψ2m  ˆψ3m   0ˆψ1mˆψ2m   ˆψ1m   0)(ˆψ1mˆψ2mˆψ3m)=ˆψm. (3.7)

    Therefore, we have [1,2,3,4,5]:

    Definition 3.1. For a one-parameter D spherical movement Km/Kf, the following holds:

    (i) ˆψf(t)=ˆAˆAt is coined the stationary directed cone.

    (ii) ˆψm(t)=ˆAtˆA is coined the movable directed cone.

    (iii) ˆrm(t)=ˆψm(t)ˆψm(t)1 is coined the movable polhode.

    (iv) ˆrf(t)=ˆψf(t)ˆψf(t)1 is coined the invariable polhode.

    We will use the subscript i whenever either m or f can be used. This agreement implies that the same quantity must be utilized throughout the entire paper.

    Theorem 3.2. For the curvature functions of the polhodes, we have [10,11]:

    ˆp(t)=ˆrm=ˆrf. (3.8)

    Notice that the trajectory of the ISA, which is consists of all oriented lines ˆrf(t), is coined the invariable axode. Analogously, ˆrm(t) is coined the movable axode AX. From ˆp=ˆpi, it follows that the movable and invariable AX osculate along the ruling line for every tR, that is, the rulings of the AX gradually turn into one through Hm/Hf and the tangent planes synchronize at the matching points. As the movement Hm/Hf progresses, the movable AX rolls and slides over the ISA (see Figure 1). As an outcome, the following corollary can be specified.

    Figure 1.  Typical portions of axodes.

    Corollary 3.1. At any instant t, through Hm/Hf, the πm osculate with the πf along the ISA in the 1st-order and their mutual distribution parameter is

    μ(t)=pp.

    For further analysis, we recognize the relative Blaschke frame (RBF) as follows:

    ˆr1(t)=r1(t)+εr1(t),

    which is the ISA for the movement Hm/Hf, and

    ˆr2(t):=r2(t)+εr2(t)=dr1dtdr1dt1

    as the mutual central normal of ˆr1(t) and ˆr1(t+dt). A third DUV is realized as

    ˆr3(t)=ˆr1׈r2.

    The set {ˆr1(t),ˆr2(t),ˆr3(t)} so realized will be coined RBF, where tR. It is fully appointed by the 1st-order ownerships of Hm/Hf. For the RBF with respect to Hi (i=m, f), we have

    (ˆr1ˆr2ˆr3)i=(0ˆp0ˆp0ˆqi0ˆqi0)(ˆr1ˆr2ˆr3) (3.9)
    =ˆωi×(ˆr1ˆr2ˆr3), (=ddt), (3.10)

    where

    ˆωi(t)=ω(t)+εω(t)=ˆqiˆr1+ˆpˆr3

    is the relative Darboux vector, and

    ˆp(t)=p(t)+εp(t)=ˆr1,ˆqi=qi+εqi=det(ˆr1,ˆr1,ˆr1) (3.11)

    are coined the Blaschke invariants. The tangent of the striction curve (SC) on the AX is defined by [20,21,22]

    c(t)i=ˆqi(t)r1(t)+p(t)r3(t). (3.12)

    On the other hand, due to the spatial three-pole-theorem, we gain the instantaneous screw of Hm/Hf as

    ˆω(t)=ˆωf(t)ˆωm(t). (3.13)

    The authenticity of this equation is shown in [10,11]. Therefore,

    ˆω(t)=ω(t)ˆr1 with ˆω(t):=ω(t)+εω(t)=ˆqf(t)ˆqm(t). (3.14)

    It is worthy to note that ˆω(t) is the D angular speed of Hm/Hf. In our mission, we shall set that ω0 to cancel out the pure translational movement. Also, we expel zero divisors ω=0. Therefore, we work with only non-torsional axodes.

    Furthermore, for ˆp(t)0, the relative D geodesic curvature ˆγ(t) of πi is

    ˆγ(t):=γ+ε(Γμγ)=ˆω(t)ˆp(t), (3.15)

    where

    γ(t)=γf(t)γm(t),Γ(t)=Γf(t)Γm(t),μ(t)=p(t)ˆp(t). (3.16)

    γ(t), Γ(t), and μ(t) are coined the relative construction functions of the AX. They are all invariant of the kinematic group and characterize fully the local forms of πi.

    Corollary 3.2. For all instant tR, through Hm/Hf, the pitch can be written as

    h(t):=<ω,ω>ω2=Γf(t)Γm(t)γf(t)γm(t). (3.17)

    Furthermore, the DUV

    ˆbi(t):=bi(t)+εbi(t)=ˆωiˆωi=ˆqiˆq2i+ˆp2ˆr1+ˆpˆq2i+ˆp2ˆr3 (3.18)

    is the Disteli-axis of πi. Let ˆϕi=ϕi+εϕi be the D radii of curvature among ˆbi and ˆr1. Then,

    ˆbi(t)=cosˆϕˆr1+sinˆϕˆr3, (3.19)

    where

    cotˆϕi:=cotϕiεϕi(1+cot2ϕi)=ˆqiˆp. (3.20)

    Consider two infinitesimally spaced rulings ˆr1(t) and ˆr1(t+dt). These two rulings are separated by a D arc-length

    dˆu:=du+εdu=dr1dtdt=ˆp(t)dt. (3.21)

    From now on, we will take the D arc length ˆu instead of tR. Then ˆr1(ˆu) is coined a D arc-length parameter curve. From now on, we shall often not write the D parameter ˆu explicitly in our formulae.

    Let {ˆti, ˆni, ˆbi} be the mobile Serret-Frenet frame (SFF) along ˆr1(ˆu). Then,

    t+εt=ˆt,ni+εni=ˆni

    and

    bi+εbi=ˆbi

    are the unit tangent, unit principal normal, and unit binormal vectors of ˆr1(ˆu). The arc-length derivative of the SFF is

    (.ˆt.ˆni.ˆbi)=(0ˆκi0ˆκi 0ˆτi0ˆτi0)(ˆtˆniˆbi), (3.22)

    where

    (ˆtˆniˆbi)=(     01   0sinˆϕi0cosˆϕicosˆϕi0sinˆϕi)(ˆr1ˆr2ˆr3). (3.23)

    One can display that

    ˆγi(ˆu)=γi+ε(Γiγiμ)=cotϕεϕi(1+cot2ϕi),ˆκi(ˆu):=κi+εκi=1+ˆγ2=1sinˆϕ=1ˆρi(ˆu),ˆτi(ˆu):=τi+ετi=±ˆϕi=±ˆγi1+ˆγ2i=1ˆσi(ˆu),} (3.24)

    where

    ˆρi=ρi+ερi

    and

    ˆσi=σi+εσi

    are the D radii of curvature and the D torsion of πi, respectively.

    In this subsection, we consider geometrical-kinematical properties of πi as follows: Note that the mutual central normal ˆti(ˆr2) of πi is linked with ˆr1. Its time derivative in Hf can be derived as [1,2,3,4,5]

    ˆtf=ˆtm+ˆω׈t, (3.25)

    where ˆtmdenotes the time derivative of ˆt calculated in Hm. Direct computation gives

    ˆti=ˆp.ˆti=ˆpˆκiˆni. (3.26)

    Considering Eq (3.25) with this, then

    ˆω׈t=ˆp(ˆκfˆnfˆκmˆnm). (3.27)

    It is easily seen from Eq (3.14) that

    <ˆω,ˆt>=ˆω<ˆω,ˆr1>=ˆω2ddt<ˆr1,ˆr1>=ˆω2ddtˆr12=0. (3.28)

    Hence, we have

    ˆω×(ˆω׈t)=ˆt2ˆω<ˆω,ˆt>ˆt=ˆω. (3.29)

    With the aid of Eqs (3.27) and (3.29), we get

    ˆω=ˆt×[ˆp(ˆκfˆnfˆκmˆnm)]=ˆp(ˆκfˆt׈nfˆκmˆt׈nm)=ˆp(ˆκfˆbfˆκmˆbm).

    Theorem 3.3. For all instant tR, through Hm/Hf, the D angular velocity is located by the geometry of the axodes and the D speed of contact due to the equation

    ˆω=ˆp(ˆκfˆbfˆκmˆbm). (3.30)

    It follows from Eqs (3.14) and (3.30) that

    ˆγˆr1=ˆκfˆbfˆκmˆbm. (3.31)

    Then, from Eqs (3.23) and (3.31), we obtain

    cotˆϕfcotˆϕm=ˆγfˆγm. (3.32)

    This is the D version of a well-known formula of Euler-Savary from ordinary spherical movements (compared with [1,2,3,4,5]). This version furnishes an engagement for the two AX in Hm/Hf. From the real and D parts of Eq (3.32), respectively, we locate

    cotϕfcotϕm=γfγm (3.33)

    and

    ϕmsin2ϕfϕfsin2ϕm+μ(cotϕfcotϕm)=ΓfΓm. (3.34)

    Equations (3.33) and (3.34) are new Disteli formulae of spatial movements for the AX. At the same time, Eq (3.33) is a formula of Euler-Savary for the polodes of real spherical movements.

    Theorem 3.4. For all instant tR, through Hm/Hf, the D angular acceleration is located by the geometry of the AX, the D speed of contact, and the rate of change of the speed due to the equation

    ˆa=ˆωf=ˆa1+ˆa2+ˆa3,

    where

    ˆa1=ˆp(ˆκfˆbfˆκmˆbm),ˆa2=ˆp2(.ˆκfˆbf.ˆκmˆbm),ˆa3=ˆp2(ˆκmˆτmˆnmˆκfˆτfˆnf)+ˆpˆωˆt.

    Proof. Differentiating Eq (3.30) with respect to t we obtain

    ˆa=ˆp(ˆκfˆbfˆκmˆbm)+ˆp2(.ˆκfˆbf.ˆκmˆbm)ˆpˆκmˆbmf. (3.35)

    Making use of the fundamental relation of relative movement

    ˆbmf=ˆbmm+ˆω׈bm=ˆp.ˆbm+ˆωˆr1׈bm=ˆp.ˆbmˆωˆκmˆt. (3.36)

    Substituting Eq (3.36) into Eq (3.35) completes the proof.

    It can be shown that the tangent to the SC is

    c(u)i=ˆΓir1+μ(u)r3, (=ddu). (3.37)

    The curvature κi and torsion τi of the SC of πi can be offered, respectively, by

    κi=c×cc3i=1(Γ2i+μ2)(Γi+μγi)2(ΓiμμΓi)2 (3.38)

    and

    τi(u):=det(c,c,c)c×c2i=μ+γiΓiΓ2i+μ2ddu(cot1ΓiμμΓi). (3.39)

    Letting βi be the arc length of the SC of πi, it follows that

    dβi=cidu=Γ2i+μ2du. (3.40)

    Making use of the results in [13], for the SC we may state the following:

    Theorem 3.5. Through Hm/Hf, the SC of πi lies on a sphere of radius a2+b2 iff

    1κi=acosθ+bsinθ,θ=βi0τidβi,

    where a and b are constants.

    Now, we will examine how the invariants vary when the variable t (or u) varies. Let yi denote a point on πi. Then,

    πi:y(u,v)i=c(u)i+vr1(u),vR. (3.41)

    The unit normal vector at any point yi(u,v) is

    g(u)i=yu×yvyu×yv=μr2vr3μ2+v2, yt=yt. (3.42)

    The 1st fundamental form I of πi is

    I=g11du2+2g12dudv+g22dv2, (3.43)

    where

    g11=yu2=Γ2i+μ2, g12=yv2=Γi,  g22=<yv,yv>=1. (3.44)

    The 2nd fundamental form II is

    II=h11du2+2h12dudv+h22dv2,

    where h11, h12, and h22 are

    h11=(Γiγi)μ+(μ+γv)μ2+v2, h12=μμ2+v2,  h22=0. (3.45)

    The Gaussian curvature K and the mean curvature Hi, respectively, are

    Ki(u,v):=K(u,v)=μ2(μ2+v2)2 (3.46)

    and

    Hi(u,v)=(μ2+v2)γi+μv+μΓi2(μ2+v2)32. (3.47)

    Hence, we have the following theorem:

    Theorem 3.6. Through Hm/Hf, the following holds:

    (1) The mean curvatures of the AX are related as follows:

    Hf(u,v)Hm(u,v)=γ2(μ2+v2)+μΓ2[μ2+v2]32.

    (2) The mutual Gaussian curvature of the AX satisfies

    K(u,v)+K(u,v)μ=116(1K(u,v)K(u,v)v2).

    Due to the values of Γi and μ in Eq (36), the geometric characterizations of πi are as follows:

    (a) If Γi=0, that is, the πi are binormal surfaces, then

    c(u)i=μ(u)r3 (3.48)

    and

    κi(u)=γiμ,μ(u)=γi(u)(acosu+bsinu)=1τi,Hf(u,v)Hm(u,v)=γ2(μ2+v2).} (3.49)

    Hence, we deduce a geometric meaning of μ which is the radii of torsion of the spherical curve c(u). Further, if μ(u) is a constant, the πi are binormal surfaces of a spherical curve of constant torsion.

    (b) If μ(u)=0, that is, the πi are tangential surfaces, then

    c(u)i=Γi(u)r1 (3.50)

    and

    Γi(u)=1κi=acosu0γidβi+bsinu0γidβiτi(u)=γiΓi,Kf(u,v)=Km(u,v)=0,Hf(u,v)Hm(u,v)=γ2(μ2+v2).} (3.51)

    Here Γi(u) is the radii of curvature of the spherical curve c(u). Similarly, when Γi(u) is stationary, the πi are tangential surfaces of a spherical curve of invariable curvature.

    (c) If Γi=μ=0, then πi are circular cones. Then, the SC degenerates to a point, that is, c(u)i=0. Here, we have

    Kf(u,v)=Km(u,v)=0,Hf(u,v)Hm(u,v)=γ2v(cotϕfcotϕm).} (3.52)

    Hence, from Eqs (3.44) and (3.45), it follows that the πi are circular cones iff its parametric curves are curvature lines (g12=h12=0).

    Let us explain the above compensations on a straightforward example. Consider the two-parameter dual spherical movement Km/Kf explained by the DM

    ˆA(ˆϑ)=(cos2ˆϑsinˆϑsinˆϑcosˆϑsinˆϑcosˆϑcosˆϑsin2ˆϑsinˆϑ0cosˆϑ) with ˆϑ=ϑ+εϑ. (3.53)

    Upon substituting into expression (3.6) for ˆψf, we attain

    ˆψf(ˆϑ)=dˆAdˆϑˆAt=(01cosˆϑ10sinˆϑcosˆϑsinˆϑ0)(sinˆϑcosˆϑ1)=ˆψf.

    Similarly, we attain

    ˆψm(ˆϑ)=ˆAtdˆAdˆϑ=(0cosˆϑ1cosˆϑ0sinˆϑ1sinˆϑ0)(sinˆϑ1cosˆϑ)=ˆψm.

    Then, we find

    πf:ˆrf(ˆϑ)=ˆψf(ˆϑ)ˆψf(ˆϑ)1=12(sinˆϑˆf1+cosˆϑˆf2ˆf3),πm:ˆrm(ˆϑ)=ˆψm(ˆϑ)ˆψm(ˆϑ)1=12(sinˆϑˆf1+ˆf2cosˆϑˆf3). (3.54)

    Equation (3.54) has only two real parameters ϑ and ϑ. Thus, if we choose ϑ=hϑ, h indicating the pitch of Hm/Hf and ϑ as the movement parameter, then Eq (3.54) represents the axodes πi. It is easily ascertained that

    ˆrf(0)=ˆrm(0)=12(ˆf2ˆf3).

    Hence, πf and πm contact along the ISA at the point ϑ=0. Consequently, the assumptions of Corollary 3.1 are satisfied. Thus, the Blaschke frame of the invariable axode πf is

    (ˆr1ˆr2ˆr3)f=(sinˆϑ2cosˆϑ212cosˆϑsinˆϑ0sinˆϑ2cosˆϑ212)(ˆf1ˆf2ˆf3). (3.55)

    If we differentiate these expressions, we find

    ˆpf(ϑ)=12(1+εh),ˆqf(ϑ)=12(1+εh). (3.56)

    For the movable axode πm, similar discussions show that

    (ˆr1ˆr2ˆr3)m=(sinˆϑ212cosˆϑ2cosˆϑ  0sinˆϑsinˆϑ212cosˆϑ2)(ˆf1ˆf2ˆf3). (3.57)

    Consequently, we obtain

    ˆpm(ϑ)=ˆqm(ϑ)=12(1+εh). (3.58)

    Hence, combining Eqs (3.56) and (3.58), we have

    ˆpf(ϑ)=ˆpm(ϑ), ˆqf(ϑ)ˆqm(ϑ)=2(1+εh). (3.59)

    which is in a total harmonization with the presumptions of Theorem 3.2. As we see from these equations, the movable axode πm touches the stationary axode πf along the ISA in the 1st-order at any instant ϑR.

    Now, we may calculate the equation of πi in terms of the point coordinates. Let yi be a point on πi. We can write

    πi:yi(ϑ,v)=r1(ϑ)×r1(ϑ)+vr1(ϑ),(i=f, m),vR. (3.60)

    Into Eq (3.60) we substitute from Eqs (3.55) and (3.57) to obtain

    πf:yf(ϑ,v)=hϑ2(sinϑ,cosϑ,1)+v2(sinϑ,cosϑ,1)

    and

    πm:ym(ϑ,v)=hϑ2(sinϑ,1,cosϑ)+v2(sinϑ,1,cosϑ).

    For h=2,0ϑ2π, 1v1, and the stationary (movable) axode πf (πm) is shown in Figures 2 and 3. The graphs of the movable and stationary axodes are shown in Figure 4.

    Some relations are derived for the spatial movement with one parameter. The geometrical properties of spatial movement are derived in the geometrical data of the axodes. The approach applied does not use the tools of instantaneous spherical kinematics [1]. The method offered is based on the E. Study map and dual vector calculus discussed in [2,3,4,9,10,11]. Several theorems, including the dual version of the planer Euler-Savary equation, are obtained, which characterize kinematical and geometrical properties of the movement. Geometrical type relations such as in Theorem 3.6, can be considered as a form of Euler-Savary equation for the axodes. One example shows how we can use the derived formulae to determine the kinematic-geometric properties of the axodes. Take, for instance, rotations, which are essential for a lot of fields, from astronomy (movement of planets) to chemistry (movement of electrons, rotation of molecules). Eigenvector/eiganvalue/eigenproblem approaches may bring light to some difficult problems. Our future research will focus on exploring some implementations of our major findings. We plan to consolidate notions from singularity theory, submanifold theory, and other pertinent results (referenced in [24,25]) to research favorable avenues within this article.
