In this paper, we mainly investigate non developable ruled surface in a 3-dimensional Euclidean space satisfying the equation $K_{II} = KH$ along each ruling, where $K$ is the Gaussian curvature, $H$ is the mean curvature and $K_{II}$ is the second Gaussian curvature.

Complete spacelike surfaces with constant mean curvature (CMC) and bounded hyperbolic angle in Generalized Robertson–Walker (GRW) spacetimes, obeying certain natural curvature assumptions, are studied. This boundedness assumption arises as a natural extension of the notion of bounded hyperbolic image of a spacelike surface in the 3-dimensional Lorentz–Minkowski spacetime. The results obtained apply to complete CMC spacelike surfaces lying between two spacelike slices in an GRW spacetime, in the steady state spacetime and in a static GRW spacetime. As an application, uniqueness and non-existence theorems for certain CMC spacelike surface differential equations in a wide family of open GRW spacetimes are given.

Complete spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in semi-Riemannian warped products are investigated. By using a technique according to Yau (1976) and a reasonable restriction on the mean curvature of the hypersurfaces, we obtain some new Bernstein-type theorems which extend some known results proved by Camargo et al. (2011) and Colares and Lima (2012).

Abstract In this paper, we discuss the monotonicity of the first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator under a forced mean curvature flow (MCF). By imposing conditions associated with the mean curvature of the initial hypersurface and the coefficient function of the forcing term of a forced MCF, and some special pinching conditions on the second fundamental form of the initial hypersurface, we prove that the first nonzero closed eigenvalues of the Laplace operator and the p-Laplace operator are monotonic under the forced MCF, respectively, which partially generalize Mao and Zhao’s work. Moreover, we give an example to specify applications of conclusions obtained above.

Background: Fractures of the mandible can be studied and described in anatomic terms, functional considerations, treatment strategies, and outcome measures. The performance of any fixation system depends on multiple factors including plate adaptation, screw placement, bone quality, drilling conditions, and postoperative patient compliance. Bite force assesses masticatory muscle function under clinical and experimental conditions. Method: 30 patients with isolated, noncomminuted mandibular fractures were randomly divided into two equal groups. Group 1 patients were treated using 3-dimensional locking miniplates and group 2 patients were treated with standard miniplates. The bite forces were recorded at definite time intervals: preoperatively, and second week, sixth week, third month, and sixth month postoperatively. Result: At 6 weeks postoperative, 3 month postoperative, and 6 month postoperative, the mean bite force was found to be significantly higher among group 1 patients as compared to those in group 2 in all the sites. While at 2 week postoperative, the mean bite force was found to be significantly higher in Group 2 as compared to Group 1 at incisor region. Conclusion: The overall results of the present study show better performance in bite force for the 3-dimensional locking miniplate when compared with standard miniplates.

Imagine a nearly horizontal, statistically uniform, random surface ζ(x, y), Gaussian in the sense that the second derivatives , , have a normal joint distribution. The problem considered is the statistical distribution of the quantitywhere J and Ω denote the mean curvature and total curvature of the surface, respectively, and ν is a constant parameter.
