Popis: In this paper, we firstly introduce kinematics properties of a moving particle lying in Minkowski space E₂⁴. We assume that particles corresponds to different type of space curves such that they are characterized by Frenet frame equations. Guided by these, we present geometrical understanding of an energy and pseudo angle on the particle in each Frenet vector fields depending on the particle corresponds to a spacelike, timelike or lightlike curve in E₂⁴. Then we also determine the bending elastic energy functional for the same particle in E₂⁴ by assuming the particle has a bending feature of elastica. Finally, we prove that bending energy formula can be represented by the energy on the particle in each Frenet vector field.
