释义

Zonohedron

A convex Polyhedron whose faces are Parallel-sided -gons. There exist Parallelograms in a nonsingular zonohedron, where is the number of different directions inwhich Edges occur (Ball and Coxeter 1987, pp. 141-144). Zonohedra include the Cube,Enneacontahedron, Great Rhombic Triacontahedron, Medial Rhombic Triacontahedron, RhombicDodecahedron, Rhombic Icosahedron, Rhombic Triacontahedron, Rhombohedron, and TruncatedCuboctahedron, as well as the entire class of Parallelepipeds.


Regular zonohedra have bands of Parallelograms which form equators and are called``Zones.'' Every convex polyhedron bounded solely by Parallelograms is a zonohedron(Coxeter 1973, p. 27). Plate II (following p. 32 of Coxeter 1973) illustrates some equilateral zonohedra. Equilateralzonohedra can be regarded as 3-dimensional projections of -D Hypercubes (Ball and Coxeter 1987).
