  2. Order-3-7 hexagonal honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order-3-7_hexagonal_honeycomb

    In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-3-infinite hexagonal honeycomb or (6,3,∞ honeycomb) is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {6,3,∞}. It has infinitely many hexagonal tiling {6,3} around each edge.

  3. Honeycomb (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeycomb_(geometry)

    The regular hyperbolic honeycombs thus include two with four or five dodecahedra meeting at each edge; their dihedral angles thus are π/2 and 2π/5, both of which are less than that of a Euclidean dodecahedron. Apart from this effect, the hyperbolic honeycombs obey the same topological constraints as Euclidean honeycombs and polychora.

  4. Honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeycomb

    A cell end composed of two hexagons and two smaller rhombi would actually be .035% (or about one part per 2850) more efficient. This difference is too minute to measure on an actual honeycomb, and irrelevant to the hive economy in terms of efficient use of wax, considering wild comb varies considerably from any mathematical notion of "ideal ...

  5. Honeycomb structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeycomb_structure

    A honeycomb-shaped structure provides a material with minimal density and relative high out-of-plane compression properties and out-of-plane shear properties. [1] Man-made honeycomb structural materials are commonly made by layering a honeycomb material between two thin layers that provide strength in tension. This forms a plate-like assembly.

  6. Order-7-3 triangular honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order-7-3_triangular_honeycomb

    In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-7-4 square honeycomb (or 4,7,4 honeycomb) a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) with Schläfli symbol {4,7,4}. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with four order-5 square tilings existing around each edge and with an order-4 heptagonal tiling vertex ...

    This honeycomb can then be alternated to produce another nonuniform honeycomb with pyritohedral icosahedra, octahedra (as triangular antiprisms), and tetrahedra (as sphenoids). Its vertex figure has C 2v symmetry and consists of 2 pentagons , 4 rectangles , 4 isosceles triangles (divided into two sets of 2), and 4 scalene triangles .

  8. Order-6 hexagonal tiling honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order-6_hexagonal_tiling...

    The Schläfli symbol of the hexagonal tiling honeycomb is {6,3,6}. Since that of the hexagonal tiling of the plane is {6,3}, this honeycomb has six such hexagonal tilings meeting at each edge. Since the Schläfli symbol of the triangular tiling is {3,6}, the vertex figure of this honeycomb is a triangular tiling. Thus, infinitely many hexagonal ...

  9. Hexagonal tiling honeycomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_tiling_honeycomb

    The Schläfli symbol of the hexagonal tiling honeycomb is {6,3,3}. Since that of the hexagonal tiling is {6,3}, this honeycomb has three such hexagonal tilings meeting at each edge. Since the Schläfli symbol of the tetrahedron is {3,3}, the vertex figure of this honeycomb is a tetrahedron. Thus, four hexagonal tilings meet at each vertex of ...
