truncated octahedron

名詞

A zonohedron that has 14 faces (eight regular hexagons and six squares) and 36 edges and is an Archimedean solid.

日本語の意味

切頭八面体：8つの正六角形と6つの正方形の合計14面と36の辺を持ち、アーチメデスの多面体に分類される幾何学的な立体

The mathematician used a paper model of a truncated octahedron to explain space-filling polyhedra to students.

その数学者は、14面（正六角形8面と正方形6面）で辺が36本あり、アルキメデスの立体に分類されるゾノヘドロンである切頂八面体の紙模型を使って、学生に空間を充填する多面体を説明した。

意味（1）

A zonohedron that has 14 faces (eight regular hexagons and six squares) and 36 edges and is an Archimedean solid.

The closest packing of truncated octahedra can be considered to be a denser packing than that of the rhombic dodecahedron because in a space filling array each truncated octahedron is surrounded by 14 others corresponding to its 14 faces, while the rhombic dodecahedron is only surrounded by 12 like cells.
