Stereographic projection of the unit sphere from the north pole onto the plane z = 0, shown here in cross section. The unit sphere S 2 in three-dimensional space R 3 is the set of points (x, y, z) such that x 2 + y 2 + z 2 = 1.
A Wulff net is used to read a pole figure. The stereographic projection of a trace is an arc. The Wulff net is arcs corresponding to planes that share a common axis in the (x,y) plane. If the pole and the trace of a plane are represented on the same diagram, then we turn the Wulff net so the trace corresponds to an arc of the net;
Stereographic projection of the world north of 30°S. 15° graticule. The stereographic projection with Tissot's indicatrix of deformation.. The stereographic projection, also known as the planisphere projection or the azimuthal conformal projection, is a conformal map projection whose use dates back to antiquity.
Net. In geometry, the 120-cell is the ... 30 chords (15 180° pairs) ... a layered stereographic projection, and a structure of intertwining rings ...
Stereographic projection of a 3-sphere (again removing the north pole) maps to three-space in the same manner. (Notice that, since stereographic projection is conformal, round spheres are sent to round spheres or to planes.) A somewhat different way to think of the one-point compactification is via the exponential map. Returning to our picture ...
A stereographic projection of a Clifford torus performing a simple rotation Topologically a rectangle is the fundamental polygon of a torus, with opposite edges sewn together. In geometric topology, the Clifford torus is the simplest and most symmetric flat embedding of the Cartesian product of two circles S 1 a and S 1
A single 30-tetrahedron Boerdijk–Coxeter helix ring within the 600-cell, seen in stereographic projection. [ad] A 30-tetrahedron ring can be seen along the perimeter of this 30-gonal orthogonal projection of the 600-cell. [an] The 30-cell ring as a {30/11} polygram of 30 edges wound into a helix that twists around its axis 11 times.
The disphenoidal 30-cell is the dual of the bitruncated 5-cell. It is a 4-dimensional polytope (or polychoron) derived from the 5-cell. It is the convex hull of two 5-cells in opposite orientations. Being the dual of a uniform polychoron, it is cell-transitive, consisting of 30 congruent tetragonal disphenoids.
