Rectified Truncated Icosahedron
In geometry, the rectified truncated icosahedron is a convex polyhedron. It has 92 faces: 60 isosceles triangles, 12 regular pentagons, and 20 regular hexagons. It is constructed as a rectification (geometry), rectified, truncated icosahedron, rectification truncating vertices down to mid-edges. As a near-miss Johnson solid, under icosahedral symmetry, the pentagons are always regular, although the hexagons, while having equal edge lengths, do not have the same edge lengths with the pentagons, having slightly different but alternating angles, causing the triangles to be Isosceles triangle, isosceles instead. The shape is a symmetrohedron with notation ''I(1,2,*,[2])'' Images Dual By Conway polyhedron notation, the dual polyhedron can be called a ''joined truncated icosahedron'', jtI, but it is topologically equivalent to the rhombic enneacontahedron with all rhombic faces. Related polyhedra The ''rectified truncated icosahedron'' can be seen in sequence of rectification (geo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Near-miss Johnson Solid
In geometry, a near-miss Johnson solid is a strictly convex set, convex polyhedron whose face (geometry), faces are close to being regular polygons but some or all of which are not precisely regular. Thus, it fails to meet the definition of a Johnson solid, a polyhedron whose faces are all regular, though it "can often be physically constructed without noticing the discrepancy" between its regular and irregular faces.. The precise number of near-misses depends on how closely the faces of such a polyhedron are required to approximate regular polygons. Some near-misses with high symmetry are also symmetrohedron, symmetrohedra with some truly regular polygon faces. Some near-misses are also zonohedron, zonohedra. Examples Coplanar misses Some failed Johnson solid candidates have coplanar faces. These polyhedra can be perturbed to become convex with faces that are arbitrarily close to regular polygons. These cases use 4.4.4.4 vertex figures of the square tiling, 3.3.3.3.3.3 vertex ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
Conway Polyhedron Notation
In geometry and topology, Conway polyhedron notation, invented by John Horton Conway and promoted by George W. Hart, is used to describe polyhedra based on a seed polyhedron modified by various prefix operations. Conway and Hart extended the idea of using operators, like truncation as defined by Kepler, to build related polyhedra of the same symmetry. For example, represents a truncated cube, and , parsed as , is ( topologically) a truncated cuboctahedron. The simplest operator dual swaps vertex and face elements; e.g., a dual cube is an octahedron: . Applied in a series, these operators allow many higher order polyhedra to be generated. Conway defined the operators (ambo), (bevel), ( dual), (expand), (gyro), (join), (kis), (meta), (ortho), ( snub), and ( truncate), while Hart added ( reflect) and (propellor). Later implementations named further operators, sometimes referred to as "extended" operators. Conway's basic operations are sufficient to generate the ...

In mathematics and computer science, truncation is limiting the number of numerical digit, digits right of the decimal point. Truncation and floor function Truncation of positive real numbers can be done using the floor function. Given a number x \in \mathbb_+ to be truncated and n \in \mathbb_0, the number of elements to be kept behind the decimal point, the truncated value of x is :\operatorname(x,n) = \frac. However, for negative numbers truncation does not round in the same direction as the floor function: truncation always rounds toward zero, the \operatorname function rounds towards negative infinity. For a given number x \in \mathbb_-, the function \operatorname is used instead :\operatorname(x,n) = \frac. Causes of truncation With computers, truncation can occur when a decimal number is type conversion, typecast as an integer; it is truncated to zero decimal digits because integers cannot store non-integer real numbers. In algebra An analogue of truncation ca ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
