Serret-Frenet equations


Let I be an interval, and let γ:I3 bean arclength parameterization of an oriented space curve, assumed tobe regular (http://planetmath.org/Curve), and free of points of inflection. Let T(s), N(s),B(s) denote the corresponding moving trihedron, and κ(s),τ(s) the corresponding curvatureMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/CurvatureOfACurve)and torsionMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath functions (http://planetmath.org/Torsion). The followingdifferentialMathworldPlanetmath relations, called the Serret-Frenet equations, holdbetween these three vectors.

T(s)=κ(s)N(s);(1)
N(s)=-κ(s)T(s)+τ(s)B(s);(2)
B(s)=-τ(s)N(s).(3)

Equation (1) follows directly from the definition of thenormal (http://planetmath.org/MovingFrame) N(s) and from the definition of thecurvature (http://planetmath.org/CurvatureAndTorsion), κ(s). Taking the derivative ofthe relation

N(s)T(s)=0,

gives

N(s)T(s)=-T(s)N(s)=-κ(s).

Taking the derivative of the relation

N(s)N(s)=1,

gives

N(s)N(s)=0.

By the definition of torsion (http://planetmath.org/CurvatureAndTorsion), we have

N(s)B(s)=τ(s).

This proves equation (2).Finally,taking derivatives of the relations

T(s)B(s)=0,
N(s)B(s)=0,
B(s)B(s)=1,

and making use of (1) and (2)gives

B(s)T(s)=-T(s)B(s)=0,
B(s)N(s)=-N(s)B(s)=-τ(s),
B(s)B(s)=0.

This proves equation (3).

It is also convenient to describe the Serret-Frenet equations by usingmatrix notation. Let F:ISO(3) (see - special orthogonalgroupMathworldPlanetmath), the mapping defined by

F(s)=(T(s),N(s),B(s)),sI

represent the Frenet frame as a 3×3 orthonormalmatrix. Equations (1) (2) (3) can besuccinctly given as

F(s)-1F(s)=(0κ(s)0-κ(s)0τ(s)0-τ(s)0)

In this formulation, the above relation is also known as the structureequations of an oriented space curve.
