Nonconstant Continuous Functions whose Tangential Derivative Vanishes along a Smooth Curve
Canadian mathematical bulletin, Tome 54 (2011) no. 4, pp. 706-715

We provide a simple example showing that the tangential derivative of a continuous function $\phi $ can vanish everywhere along a curve while the variation of $\phi $ along this curve is nonzero. We give additional regularity conditions on the curve and/or the function that prevent this from happening.
