  2. Atomic packing factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_packing_factor

    where N particle is the number of particles in the unit cell, V particle is the volume of each particle, and V unit cell is the volume occupied by the unit cell. It can be proven mathematically that for one-component structures, the most dense arrangement of atoms has an APF of about 0.74 (see Kepler conjecture ), obtained by the close-packed ...

  3. Unit cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_cell

    A primitive cell is a unit cell that contains exactly one lattice point. For unit cells generally, lattice points that are shared by n cells are counted as ⁠ 1 / n ⁠ of the lattice points contained in each of those cells; so for example a primitive unit cell in three dimensions which has lattice points only at its eight vertices is considered to contain ⁠ 1 / 8 ⁠ of each of them. [3]

  4. Representative elementary volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representative_elementary...

    Schematic illustration of idealized fiber arrays and their corresponding unit cells. In the theory of composite materials, the representative elementary volume (REV) (also called the representative volume element (RVE) or the unit cell) is the smallest volume over which a measurement can be made that will yield a value representative of the whole. [1]

  5. Lattice constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_constant

    Unit cell definition using parallelepiped with lengths a, b, c and angles between the sides given by α, β, γ [1]. A lattice constant or lattice parameter is one of the physical dimensions and angles that determine the geometry of the unit cells in a crystal lattice, and is proportional to the distance between atoms in the crystal.

    An undisclosed number of 4x4 and 6x6 MAX 3s were acquired from South African Defence Contractor SVI Engineering in early 2024 and delivered to the Joint Operations Division of the SANDF. The Army is currently looking to acquire a mix of 462 different APCs / MRAPs from multiple South African companies in three variants: 210 Section variants, 144 ...

    In many cases, the district municipalities are the water services authorities. However, the national government can assign responsibility for service provision to local municipalities. Overall, there are 169 water services authorities in South Africa, including water boards, district municipalities, local municipalities and municipal companies.

  8. Water Board (South Africa) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Board_(South_Africa)

    The Water Boards in South Africa (see list below), together indirectly served more than 24 million people in 90 municipalities in 2005, or about half the population of South Africa. The three largest Water Boards - Rand Water in Gauteng Province, Umgeni Water in KwaZulu Natal Province and Overberg Water – indirectly serve 10 million, 4 ...

  9. Cubic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_crystal_system

    It has a net total of two lattice points per unit cell (1 ⁄ 8 × 8 + 1). [ 1 ] The face-centered cubic lattice (cF) has lattice points on the faces of the cube, that each gives exactly one half contribution, in addition to the corner lattice points, giving a total of four lattice points per unit cell ( 1 ⁄ 8 × 8 from the corners plus 1 ...
