Scientific paper

Engel structures on M x S^1 and M x I are studied in this paper, where M is a
3-dimensional manifold. We suppose that these structures have characteristic
line fields parallel to the fibres, S^1 or I. It is proved that they are
characterized by contact structures on the cross section M, the twisting
numbers, and Legendrian foliations on both ends M x dI in the case of M x I.
