  2. Point group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_group

    In geometry, a point group is a mathematical group of symmetry operations (isometries in a Euclidean space) that have a fixed point in common. The coordinate origin of the Euclidean space is conventionally taken to be a fixed point, and every point group in dimension d is then a subgroup of the orthogonal group O(d).

  3. Truncation (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    A regular polygon can also be represented by its Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, , and its uniform truncation , and its complete truncation . The graph represents Coxeter group I 2 (n), with each node representing a mirror, and the edge representing the angle π/ n between the mirrors, and a circle is given around one or both mirrors to show which ones ...

  4. Geodesic polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic_polyhedron

    For example, the icosahedron is {3,5+} 1,0, and pentakis dodecahedron, {3,5+} 1,1 is seen as a regular dodecahedron with pentagonal faces divided into 5 triangles. The primary face of the subdivision is called a principal polyhedral triangle (PPT) or the breakdown structure. Calculating a single PPT allows the entire figure to be created.

  5. Digon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digon

    A regular digon has both angles equal and both sides equal and is represented by Schläfli symbol {2}. It may be constructed on a sphere as a pair of 180 degree arcs connecting antipodal points, when it forms a lune. The digon is the simplest abstract polytope of rank 2. A truncated digon, t{2} is a square, {4}. An alternated digon, h{2} is a ...

  6. Delaunay triangulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delaunay_triangulation

    In the plane (d = 2), if there are b vertices on the convex hull, then any triangulation of the points has at most 2n – 2 – b triangles, plus one exterior face (see Euler characteristic). If points are distributed according to a Poisson process in the plane with constant intensity, then each vertex has on average six surrounding triangles.

  7. Simple Features - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Features

    Simple Features (officially Simple Feature Access) is a set of standards that specify a common storage and access model of geographic features made of mostly two-dimensional geometries (point, line, polygon, multi-point, multi-line, etc.) used by geographic databases and geographic information systems.

  8. Geometrical Product Specification and Verification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical_Product...

    Geometrical Product Specification and Verification (GPS&V) [1] is a set of ISO standards developed by ISO Technical Committee 213. [2] The aim of those standards is to develop a common language to specify macro geometry (size, form, orientation, location) and micro-geometry (surface texture) of products or parts of products so that the language can be used consistently worldwide.

  9. Poncelet's closure theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poncelet's_closure_theorem

    Illustration of Poncelet's porism for n = 3, a triangle that is inscribed in one circle and circumscribes another.. In geometry, Poncelet's closure theorem, also known as Poncelet's porism, states that whenever a polygon is inscribed in one conic section and circumscribes another one, the polygon must be part of an infinite family of polygons that are all inscribed in and circumscribe the same ...
