  2. Spherical polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_polyhedron

    In geometry, a spherical polyhedron or spherical tiling is a tiling of the sphere in which the surface is divided or partitioned by great arcs into bounded regions called spherical polygons. A polyhedron whose vertices are equidistant from its center can be conveniently studied by projecting its edges onto the sphere to obtain a corresponding ...

    Tessellations of euclidean and hyperbolic space may also be considered regular polytopes. Note that an 'n'-dimensional polytope actually tessellates a space of one dimension less. For example, the (three-dimensional) platonic solids tessellate the 'two'-dimensional 'surface' of the sphere.

  4. List of spherical symmetry groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_spherical_symmetry...

    Finite spherical symmetry groups are also called point groups in three dimensions.There are five fundamental symmetry classes which have triangular fundamental domains: dihedral, cyclic, tetrahedral, octahedral, and icosahedral symmetry.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lénárt_sphere

    The Lénárt sphere and accessories are produced by the company Lénárt Educational Research and Technology. The basic set includes: [3] An eight-inch transparent plastic sphere; A torus-shaped support to place under the sphere; Hemispherical transparencies that fit over the sphere for students to draw on with marker pens or cut out shapes ...

  6. Geodesic polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic_polyhedron

    Geodesic polyhedra are a good approximation to a sphere for many purposes, and appear in many different contexts. The most well-known may be the geodesic domes, hemispherical architectural structures designed by Buckminster Fuller, which geodesic polyhedra are named after. Geodesic grids used in geodesy also have the geometry of geodesic polyhedra.

  7. Spherical geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_geometry

    The sum of the angles of a spherical triangle is not equal to 180°. A sphere is a curved surface, but locally the laws of the flat (planar) Euclidean geometry are good approximations. In a small triangle on the face of the earth, the sum of the angles is only slightly more than 180 degrees. A sphere with a spherical triangle on it.

  8. Sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere

    This sphere was a fused quartz gyroscope for the Gravity Probe B experiment, and differs in shape from a perfect sphere by no more than 40 atoms (less than 10 nm) of thickness. It was announced on 1 July 2008 that Australian scientists had created even more nearly perfect spheres, accurate to 0.3 nm, as part of an international hunt to find a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblate_spheroidal_coordinates

    Figure 1: Coordinate isosurfaces for a point P (shown as a black sphere) in oblate spheroidal coordinates (μ, ν, φ). The z-axis is vertical, and the foci are at ±2. The red oblate spheroid (flattened sphere) corresponds to μ = 1, whereas the blue half-hyperboloid corresponds to ν = 45°.
