In geometry, the sphenomegacorona is a Johnson solid with 16 equilateral triangles and 2 squares as its faces.
The sphenomegacorona was named by Johnson (1966) in which he used the prefix spheno- referring to a wedge-like complex formed by two adjacent lunes—a square with equilateral triangles attached on its opposite sides. The suffix -megacorona refers to a crownlike complex of 12 triangles, contrasted with the smaller triangular complex that makes the sphenocorona. [1] By joining both complexes together, the resulting polyhedron has 16 equilateral triangles and 2 squares, making 18 faces. [2] All of its faces are regular polygons, categorizing the sphenomegacorona as a Johnson solid —a convex polyhedron in which all of the faces are regular polygons—enumerated as the 88th Johnson solid . [3] It is elementary, meaning it does not arise from "cut-and-paste" manipulations of both Platonic and Archimedean solids. [4]
The surface area of a sphenomegacorona with edge length a can be calculated as:
and its volume as
where the decimal expansion of ξ is given by A334114. [2] [5]
Let k ≈ 0.59463 be the smallest positive root of the polynomial
Then, Cartesian coordinates of a sphenomegacorona with edge length 2 are given by the union of the orbits of the points
under the action of the group generated by reflections about the xz-plane and the yz-plane. [6]
In geometry, an n-gonal antiprism or n-antiprism is a polyhedron composed of two parallel direct copies of an n-sided polygon, connected by an alternating band of 2n triangles. They are represented by the Conway notation An.
In geometry, an octahedron is a polyhedron with eight faces. The term is most commonly used to refer to the regular octahedron, a Platonic solid composed of eight equilateral triangles, four of which meet at each vertex.
In geometry, the snub cube, or snub cuboctahedron, is an Archimedean solid with 38 faces: 6 squares and 32 equilateral triangles. It has 60 edges and 24 vertices.
In geometry, the snub dodecahedron, or snub icosidodecahedron, is an Archimedean solid, one of thirteen convex isogonal nonprismatic solids constructed by two or more types of regular polygon faces.
In geometry, the triakis icosahedron is an Archimedean dual solid, or a Catalan solid, with 60 isosceles triangle faces. Its dual is the truncated dodecahedron. It has also been called the kisicosahedron. It was first depicted, in a non-convex form with equilateral triangle faces, by Leonardo da Vinci in Luca Pacioli's Divina proportione, where it was named the icosahedron elevatum. The capsid of the Hepatitis A virus has the shape of a triakis icosahedron.
The triaugmented triangular prism, in geometry, is a convex polyhedron with 14 equilateral triangles as its faces. It can be constructed from a triangular prism by attaching equilateral square pyramids to each of its three square faces. The same shape is also called the tetrakis triangular prism, tricapped trigonal prism, tetracaidecadeltahedron, or tetrakaidecadeltahedron; these last names mean a polyhedron with 14 triangular faces. It is an example of a deltahedron and of a Johnson solid.
In geometry, the elongated square gyrobicupola is a polyhedron constructed by two square cupolas attaching onto the bases of octagonal prism, with one of them rotated. It is also known as pseudo-rhombicuboctahedron because many mathematicians mistakenly constructed a rhombicuboctahedron. It is not considered to be an Archimedean solid because it lacks a set of global symmetries that map every vertex to every other vertex, unlike the 13 Archimedean solids. It is also a canonical polyhedron.
In geometry, the snub disphenoid is a convex polyhedron with 12 equilateral triangles as its faces. It is an example of deltahedron and Johnson solid. It can be constructed in different approaches. This shape also has alternative names called Siamese dodecahedron, triangular dodecahedron, trigonal dodecahedron, or dodecadeltahedron; these names mean the 12-sided polyhedron.
In geometry, the snub square antiprism is the Johnson solid that can be constructed by snubbing the square antiprism. It is one of the elementary Johnson solids that do not arise from "cut and paste" manipulations of the Platonic and Archimedean solids, although it is a relative of the icosahedron that has fourfold symmetry instead of threefold.
In geometry, the hebesphenomegacorona is a Johnson solid with 18 equilateral triangles and 3 squares as its faces.
In geometry, the sphenocorona is a Johnson solid with 12 equilateral triangles and 2 squares as its faces.
In geometry, the disphenocingulum is a Johnson solid with 20 equilateral triangles and 4 squares as its faces.
In geometry, the bilunabirotunda is a Johnson solid with faces of 8 equilateral triangles, 2 squares, and 4 regular pentagons.
In geometry, the triangular hebesphenorotunda is a Johnson solid with 13 equilateral triangles, 3 squares, 3 regular pentagons, and 1 regular hexagon, making the total of its faces is 20.
In geometry, the augmented sphenocorona is the Johnson solid that can be constructed by attaching an equilateral square pyramid to one of the square faces of the sphenocorona. It is the only Johnson solid arising from "cut and paste" manipulations where the components are not all prisms, antiprisms or sections of Platonic or Archimedean solids.
In geometry, the elongated triangular pyramid is one of the Johnson solids. As the name suggests, it can be constructed by elongating a tetrahedron by attaching a triangular prism to its base. Like any elongated pyramid, the resulting solid is topologically self-dual.
In geometry, the elongated square pyramid is a convex polyhedron constructed from a cube by attaching an equilateral square pyramid onto one of its faces. It is an example of Johnson solid. It is topologically self-dual.
In geometry, the gyrobifastigium is the 26th Johnson solid. It can be constructed by joining two face-regular triangular prisms along corresponding square faces, giving a quarter-turn to one prism. It is the only Johnson solid that can tile three-dimensional space.
In geometry, the augmented triangular prism is a polyhedron constructed by attaching an equilateral square pyramid onto the square face of a triangular prism. As a result, it is an example of Johnson solid. It can be visualized as the chemical compound, known as capped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry.
In geometry, the augmented pentagonal prism is a polyhedron that can be constructed by attaching an equilateral square pyramid onto the square face of pentagonal prism. It is an example of Johnson solid.
