Common net of a 1x1x5 and 1x2x3 cuboid. Common nets of cuboids have been deeply researched, mainly by Uehara and coworkers. To the moment, common nets of up to three cuboids have been found, It has, however, been proven that there exist infinitely many examples of nets that can be folded into more than one polyhedra. [10]
The net has to be such that the straight line is fully within it, and one may have to consider several nets to see which gives the shortest path. For example, in the case of a cube , if the points are on adjacent faces one candidate for the shortest path is the path crossing the common edge; the shortest path of this kind is found using a net ...
A rectangular cuboid with integer edges, as well as integer face diagonals, is called an Euler brick; for example with sides 44, 117, and 240. A perfect cuboid is an Euler brick whose space diagonal is also an integer. It is currently unknown whether a perfect cuboid actually exists. [6] The number of different nets for a simple cube is 11 ...
Isometric projection and net of naive (1) and optimal (2) solutions of the spider and the fly problem. The spider and the fly problem is a recreational mathematics problem with an unintuitive solution, asking for a shortest path or geodesic between two points on the surface of a cuboid. It was originally posed by Henry Dudeney.
Etymologically, "cuboid" means "like a cube", in the sense of a convex solid which can be transformed into a cube (by adjusting the lengths of its edges and the angles between its adjacent faces). A cuboid is a convex polyhedron whose polyhedral graph is the same as that of a cube. [1] [2] General cuboids have many different types.
A net = is said to be frequently or cofinally in if for every there exists some such that and . [5] A point is said to be an accumulation point or cluster point of a net if for every neighborhood of , the net is frequently/cofinally in . [5] In fact, is a cluster point if and only if it has a subnet that converges to . [6] The set of all ...
A cube is a special case of rectangular cuboid in which the edges are equal in length. [1] Like other cuboids, every face of a cube has four vertices, each of which connects with three congruent lines. These edges form square faces, making the dihedral angle of a cube between every two adjacent squares being the interior angle of a square, 90 ...
Geometric Folding Algorithms: Linkages, Origami, Polyhedra is a monograph on the mathematics and computational geometry of mechanical linkages, paper folding, and polyhedral nets, by Erik Demaine and Joseph O'Rourke. It was published in 2007 by Cambridge University Press (ISBN 978-0-521-85757-4).
