Abstract
In the present study we consider ruled surfaces imbedded in a
Euclidean space of four dimensions. We also give some special
examples of ruled surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^{4}.$ Further, the
curvature properties of these surface are investigated with
respect to variation of normal vectors and curvature
ellipse. Finally, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for
ruled surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^{4}$ to become superconformal. We also show that superconformal ruled surfaces in $\mathbb{E}^{4}$ are Chen surfaces.
