Dodecahedral cupola

In 4-dimensional geometry, the dodecahedral cupola is a polychoron bounded by a rhombicosidodecahedron, a parallel dodecahedron, connected by 30 triangular prisms, 12 pentagonal prisms, and 20 tetrahedra. (Wikipedia).

How to Construct a Dodecahedron

How the greeks constructed the Dodecahedron. Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 17. In geometry, a dodecahedron is any polyhedron with twelve flat faces. The most familiar dodecahedron is the regular dodecahedron with regular pentagons as faces, which is a Platonic solid. A regular dode

Canonical structures inside the Platonic solids III | Universal Hyperbolic Geometry 51

The dodecahedron is surely one of the truly great mathematical objects---revered by the ancient Greeks, Kepler, and many mathematicians since. Its symmetries are particularly rich, and in this video we look at how to see the five-fold and six-fold symmetries of this object via internal str

How do ceramic crystal structures differ from metal crystal structures?

Metal crystal structures are much simpler than ceramic structures. This is due to two reasons. First, ceramics have positive and negative charged ions. Cations and ions must maintain charge neutrality. Second, the size of cations and anions are very different! Structures with multiple diff
