The tangent developable is a ruled surface for which the rulings are tangent to the curve at each point and relative to this surface the absolute value of the geodesic curvature κg of the curve equals the curvature κ. The alternative construction is the rectifying developable. The geodesic curvature of the curve relative to any such surface vanishes. We show that there is a family of developable surfaces that can be generated from a curve, one surface for each function k that is defined on the curve and satisfies |k| ≤ κ, and that the geodesic curvature of the curve relative to each such constructed surface satisfies κg = k.}, title = {Bridging the gap between rectifying developables and tangent developables: a family of developable surfaces associated with a space curve}, volume = {477}, year = {2021} }
