  2. Wedge (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedge_(geometry)

    A wedge is a polyhedron of a rectangular base, with the faces are two isosceles triangles and two trapezoids that meet at the top of an edge. [1]. A prismatoid is defined as a polyhedron where its vertices lie on two parallel planes, with its lateral faces are triangles, trapezoids, and parallelograms; [2] the wedge is an example of prismatoid because of its top edge is parallel to the ...

  3. Mach reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach_reflection

    Mach reflection can exist in steady, pseudo-steady and unsteady flows. When a shock wave, which is moving with a constant velocity, propagates over a solid wedge, the flow generated by the shock impinges on the wedge thus generating a second reflected shock, which ensures that the velocity of the flow is parallel to the wedge surface.

  4. Solid geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_geometry

    A solid figure is the region of 3D space bounded by a two-dimensional closed surface; for example, a solid ball consists of a sphere and its interior. Solid geometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solids, including pyramids , prisms (and other polyhedrons ), cubes , cylinders , cones (and truncated cones ).

  6. Scheil equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheil_equation

    A numerical example using a copper zinc alloy at composition Zn 30% in weight is proposed as an example here using the opposite sign for using both temperature and its derivative in the same graph. Scheil solidification of a copper zinc alloy, temperature in blue, numerical derivative of temperature with the opposite of solid fraction is red

  7. Hume-Rothery rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hume-Rothery_rules

    This could ease the theoretical phase diagram generation of multicomponent systems. For alloys containing transition metal elements there is a difficulty in interpretation of the Hume-Rothery electron concentration rule, as the values of e/a values (number of itinerant electrons per atom) for transition metals have been quite controversial for ...

  8. Semiregular polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiregular_polyhedron

    In many works semiregular polyhedron is used as a synonym for Archimedean solid. [7] For example, Cundy & Rollett (1961). We can distinguish between the facially-regular and vertex-transitive figures based on Gosset, and their vertically-regular (or versi-regular) and facially-transitive duals.

  9. Polyhedral graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhedral_graph

    The polyhedral graph formed as the Schlegel diagram of a regular dodecahedron. In geometric graph theory, a branch of mathematics, a polyhedral graph is the undirected graph formed from the vertices and edges of a convex polyhedron. Alternatively, in purely graph-theoretic terms, the polyhedral graphs are the 3-vertex-connected, planar graphs.
