Let \(E\) be a submanifold of \(T(M \times \mathbb{R})\) such that (1) \(E\) is diffeomorphic to \(TM\times \mathbb{R}\), (2) \(E\) is isomorphic to \(TM\times \mathbb{R}\), (3) \(TE\) and \(T (TM \times \mathbb{R})\) have locally the same bases. Let \(\gamma_{ij} (x,t)\) be a pseudo-Riemannian metric on \(M\times \mathbb{R}\) and \(\Gamma^i_{jk}\) the Christoffel symbols induced by \(\gamma_{ij} (x,t)\). The author introduces and studies the time dependent Synge metric \[ g_{ij} (x,y,t) =\gamma_{ij} (x,t)+ f^2(x,y,t) y_iy_j, \quad y_i =\gamma_{ik} (x,t)y^k, \] and a correlated nonlinear connection, given by \[ N^k_i (x,y,t)= \biggl[\Gamma^k_{ij} (x,t)+ b\bigl( f,|y|^2 \bigr)y^k \gamma_{ij} (x,t) \biggr] y^i+ \Gamma^k_{i0} y^0, \] for \[ \gamma_{i0} (x,t)= \gamma_{0i} (x,t)=0, \quad \gamma_{00} (x,t)= {k\over t^2}. \]
