There are a number of attractive polyhedron compounds consisting of two octahedra. The first (left figure) consists of two octahedra rotated above a common C_3 symmetry axes. ...

A first compound of 20 octahedra can be constructed from the vertices of icositruncated dodecadodecahedron uniform polyhedron and a second from the vertices of the great ...

The octahemioctahedron, also called the octatetrahedron, is the uniform polyhedron with Maeder index 3 (Maeder 1997), Wenninger index 68 (Wenninger 1989), Coxeter index 37 ...

Consider the decimal expansion of the reciprocal of the number seven, 1/7=0.142857142857...=0.142857^_, (1) which is a repeating decimal. Now take overlapping pairs of these ...

The ophiuride is a cubic curve (left figure) given by the implicit equation x(x^2+y^2)+(ax-by)y=0, (1) where a>0,b>=0, or by the polar equation ...

A projection of a figure by parallel rays. In such a projection, tangencies are preserved. Parallel lines project to parallel lines. The ratio of lengths of parallel segments ...

The orthographic projection is a projection from infinity that preserves neither area nor angle. It is given by x = cosphisin(lambda-lambda_0) (1) y = ...

The placement of objects so that they touch in some specified manner, often inside a container with specified properties. For example, one could consider a sphere packing, ...

The parabiaugmented dodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(60). The unit parabiaugmented dodecahedron has volume V=1/6(25+11sqrt(5)) (1) and Dehn ...

The parabiaugmented hexagonal prism is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(56). The parabiaugmented hexagonal prism has volume V=1/6(2sqrt(2)+9sqrt(3)) (1) ...
