  • Let (M, g) be a noncompact complete Riemannian manifold of dimension n $\geq$ 3 with scalar curvature S, which is close to O. With conditions on a conformal invariant and scalar curvature of (M, g), we show that there exists a conformal metric (equation omitted), near g, whose scalar curvature (equation omitted) = 0 by gluing solutions of the corresponding partial differential equation on each bounded subsets $K_{i}$ with ∪$K_{i}$ = M.

  • The object of this study is to propose the bending moment-curvature relationships based on the bond properties between concrete and steel for noncraking zone, and evaluate the flexural displacement of reinforced concrete members. The bond-slip relationship and the strain hardening effect of steel were taken into account in order to evaluate the spacing of the cracks and the curvature distribution. Calculated curvature distribution along the longitudinal axis was transformed into equivalent curvature distribution. The flexural displacement was calculated by means of double intergral of the equivalent curvature. Calculated values are in good agreement with the experimental data.

  • In a Sasakian manifold, a C-Bochner curvature tensor is constructed from the Bochner curvature tensor in a Kaehlefian manifold by the fibering of Boothby-wang[2]. Many subjects for vanishing C-Bocher curvature tensor with constant scalar curvature were studied in [3], [6], [7], [9], [10], [11] and so on.

  • Let M(sup)n be a space-ike submanifold in a de Sitter space M(sub)p(sup)n+p (c) with constant scalar curvature. We firstly extend Cheng-Yau's Technique to higher codimensional cases. Then we study the rigidity problem for M(sup)n with parallel normalized mean curvature vector field.

  • In this paper, we study the curvature of a semi-Riemannian manifold $\tilde{M}$ of quasi-constant curvature admits some half lightlike submanifolds M. The main result is two characterization theorems for $\tilde{M}$ admits extended screen homothetic and statical half lightlike submanifolds M such that the curvature vector field of $\tilde{M}$ is tangent to M.

  • On a compact n-dimensional manifold M, it has been conjectured that a critical point metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of volume 1, should be Einstein. The purpose of the present paper is to prove that a 3-dimensional manifold (M,g) is isometric to a standard sphere if ker $s^*_g{{\neq}}0$ and there is a lower Ricci curvature bound. We also study the structure of a compact oriented stable minimal surface in M.

  • Direct numerical simulation has been used to study turbulent boundary layers with convex curvature. A direct numerical simulation program has been developed to solve incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in generalized coordinates with the finite volume method. We considered two boundary layer thicknesses. When the curvature effect is small, mean velocity statistics show little difference with those of a plane channel flow. Turbulent intensity decreases as curvature increases. Contours suggest that streamwise vorticities are strong where large pressure fluctuations exist.

  • We show that an umbilic-free minimal surface in ${\mathbb{R}}^3$ belongs to the associate family of the catenoid if and only if the geodesic curvatures of its lines of curvature have a constant ratio. As a corollary, the helicoid is shown to be the unique umbilic-free minimal surface whose lines of curvature have the same geodesic curvature. A similar characterization of the deformation family of minimal surfaces with planar lines of curvature is also given.

  • In this study, we use the generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on a trans-Sasakian manifold of type (${\alpha},{\beta}$) and obtain the curvature tensors of a trans-Sasakian manifold with respect to this connection. Also, we investigate some special curvature conditions of a trans-Sasakian manifold with respect to generalized Tanaka-Webster connection and finally, give an example for trans-Sasakian manifolds.
