单词 Stellated Polyhedron
释义

Stellated Polyhedron

A convex regular Polyhedron. Stellated polyhedra include the Kepler-Poinsot Solids,which consist of three Dodecahedron Stellations and one of the Icosahedron Stellations. Coxeter (1982) shows that59 Icosahedron Stellations exist. The Cube and the Tetrahedron cannot be stellated. TheOctahedron has only one stellation, the Stella Octangula which is a compound of twoTetrahedra.


There are therefore a total of stellated Polyhedra, although some areCompound Polyhedra and therefore not Uniform Polyhedra. The setof all possible Edges of the stellations can be obtained by finding all intersections on thefacial planes.
