Bitruncated Cubic Honeycomb Verf
In geometry, a bitruncation is an operation on regular polytopes. It represents a truncation beyond rectification. The original edges are lost completely and the original faces remain as smaller copies of themselves. Bitruncated regular polytopes can be represented by an extended Schläfli symbol notation or In regular polyhedra and tilings For regular polyhedra (i.e. regular 3-polytopes), a ''bitruncated'' form is the truncated dual. For example, a bitruncated cube is a truncated octahedron. In regular 4-polytopes and honeycombs For a regular 4-polytope, a ''bitruncated'' form is a dual-symmetric operator. A bitruncated 4-polytope is the same as the bitruncated dual, and will have double the symmetry if the original 4-polytope is self-dual. A regular polytope (or honeycomb) will have its cells bitruncated into truncated cells, and the vertices are replaced by truncated cells.

Truncated Dodecahedron
In geometry, the truncated dodecahedron is an Archimedean solid. It has 12 regular decagonal faces, 20 regular triangular faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges. Geometric relations This polyhedron can be formed from a regular dodecahedron by truncating (cutting off) the corners so the pentagon faces become decagons and the corners become triangles. It is used in the cell-transitive hyperbolic space-filling tessellation, the bitruncated icosahedral honeycomb. Area and volume The area ''A'' and the volume ''V'' of a truncated dodecahedron of edge length ''a'' are: :\begin A &= 5 \left(\sqrt+6\sqrt\right) a^2 &&\approx 100.990\,76a^2 \\ V &= \tfrac \left(99+47\sqrt\right) a^3 &&\approx 85.039\,6646a^3 \end Cartesian coordinates Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated dodecahedron with edge length 2''φ'' − 2, centered at the origin, are all even permutations of: :(0, ±, ±(2 + ''φ'')) :(±, ±''φ'', ±2''φ'') :(±''φ'', ±2, ±(''φ'' ...

Convex Uniform Honeycombs In Hyperbolic Space
In hyperbolic geometry, a uniform honeycomb in hyperbolic space is a uniform tessellation of uniform polyhedral cells. In 3-dimensional hyperbolic space there are nine Coxeter group families of compact convex uniform honeycombs, generated as Wythoff constructions, and represented by permutations of rings of the Coxeter diagrams for each family. Hyperbolic uniform honeycomb families Honeycombs are divided between compact and paracompact forms defined by Coxeter groups, the first category only including finite cells and vertex figures (finite subgroups), and the second includes affine subgroups. Compact uniform honeycomb families The nine compact Coxeter groups are listed here with their Coxeter diagrams, in order of the relative volumes of their fundamental simplex domains. These 9 families generate a total of 76 unique uniform honeycombs. The full list of hyperbolic uniform honeycombs has not been proven and an unknown number of non-Wythoffian forms exist.

Uniform Convex Honeycomb
In geometry, a convex uniform honeycomb is a uniform tessellation which fills three-dimensional Euclidean space with non-overlapping convex uniform polyhedral cells. Twenty-eight such honeycombs are known: * the familiar cubic honeycomb and 7 truncations thereof; * the alternated cubic honeycomb and 4 truncations thereof; * 10 prismatic forms based on the uniform plane tilings (11 if including the cubic honeycomb); * 5 modifications of some of the above by elongation and/or gyration. They can be considered the three-dimensional analogue to the uniform tilings of the plane. The Voronoi diagram of any lattice forms a convex uniform honeycomb in which the cells are zonohedra. History * 1900: Thorold Gosset enumerated the list of semiregular convex polytopes with regular cells (Platonic solids) in his publication ''On the Regular and Semi-Regular Figures in Space of n Dimensions'', including one regular cubic honeycomb, and two semiregular forms with tetrahedra and octahedra. * ...

Truncated Hexahedron
In geometry, the truncated cube, or truncated hexahedron, is an Archimedean solid. It has 14 regular faces (6 octagonal and 8 triangular), 36 edges, and 24 vertices. If the truncated cube has unit edge length, its dual triakis octahedron has edges of lengths 2 and 2 + . Area and volume The area ''A'' and the volume ''V'' of a truncated cube of edge length ''a'' are: :\begin A &= 2\left(6+6\sqrt+\sqrt\right)a^2 &&\approx 32.434\,6644a^2 \\ V &= \fraca^3 &&\approx 13.599\,6633a^3. \end Orthogonal projections The ''truncated cube'' has five special orthogonal projections, centered, on a vertex, on two types of edges, and two types of faces: triangles, and octagons. The last two correspond to the B2 and A2 Coxeter planes. Spherical tiling The truncated cube can also be represented as a spherical tiling, and projected onto the plane via a stereographic projection. This projection is conformal, preserving angles but not areas or lengths. Straight lines on the sphere are pr ...

Bitruncated 24-cell
In geometry, a truncated 24-cell is a uniform 4-polytope (4-dimensional uniform polytope) formed as the truncation of the regular 24-cell. There are two degrees of truncations, including a bitruncation. Truncated 24-cell The truncated 24-cell or truncated icositetrachoron is a uniform 4-dimensional polytope (or uniform 4-polytope), which is bounded by 48 cells: 24 cubes, and 24 truncated octahedra. Each vertex joins three truncated octahedra and one cube, in an equilateral triangular pyramid vertex figure. Construction The truncated 24-cell can be constructed from polytopes with three symmetry groups: *F4 ,4,3 A truncation of the 24-cell. *B4 ,3,4 A cantitruncation of the 16-cell, with two families of truncated octahedral cells. *D4 1,1,1 An omnitruncation of the demitesseract, with three families of truncated octahedral cells. Zonotope It is also a zonotope: it can be formed as the Minkowski sum of the six line segments connecting opposite pairs among the twelve ...

Truncated Tetrahedron
In geometry, the truncated tetrahedron is an Archimedean solid. It has 4 regular hexagonal faces, 4 equilateral triangle faces, 12 vertices and 18 edges (of two types). It can be constructed by truncating all 4 vertices of a regular tetrahedron at one third of the original edge length. A deeper truncation, removing a tetrahedron of half the original edge length from each vertex, is called rectification. The rectification of a tetrahedron produces an octahedron. A ''truncated tetrahedron'' is the Goldberg polyhedron containing triangular and hexagonal faces. A ''truncated tetrahedron'' can be called a cantic cube, with Coxeter diagram, , having half of the vertices of the cantellated cube (rhombicuboctahedron), . There are two dual positions of this construction, and combining them creates the uniform compound of two truncated tetrahedra. Area and volume The area ''A'' and the volume ''V'' of a truncated tetrahedron of edge length ''a'' are: :\begin A &= 7\sqrta^2 &&\appro ...
