In this paper, we study the mean curvature flows of convex hypersurface in Euclidean spaces in two situations: n = 1 and n≥2. we use evolution equations of their first and second fundamental forms and the maximum principle to get somestructual results on the shape of Mω.Specifically, we prove the following theorems.TheoremⅠSuppose 7o is a closed convex curve.Then the solutionγ(,t) ofthe evolution equation with 7o as intial curve exists only at a finite timeinterval [0,ω) .Furthermore, as t→ω, the solutionγ(,t) converges to a piont.TheoremⅡLet n≥2 and M is a compact without boundary n -dimensional manifold, F0 is a smooth hypersurface immersion of Mn into Rn+1 , the intialsurface M0 is smooth,compact without boundary and with positive mean curvature, Suppose that Ft : Mn→Rn+1 be a one-parameter family of smooth hypersurface immersions in Euclidean space,Then the solution F(,t) of evolution equation(where H(p,t) and v(p,t) are the mean curvature and unitnormal at ( p,t ) on Mt respectively ) exists a maximal time interval 0≤t <ω<∞.Moreover as t→ω,F(,t) converges to a piont. Furthermore, ast→ω,maxMt |A|2 becomes unbounded.TheoremⅢThe third fundamental form satisfies the evolution equation (?)/(?)t bij=△bij+2|A|2bij - 2HbijHjpglp-2gij|▽H|2...
