  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. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    A solid wedged bond seen for example at the nitrogen (N) at top indicates a bond pointing above-the-plane, while a dashed wedged bond seen for example at the hydrogen (H) at bottom indicates a below-the-plane bond. Chirality in skeletal formulas is indicated by the Natta projection method.

  4. 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.

  5. 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. 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.

  7. Radar chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_chart

    For example, the alternating data 9, 1, 9, 1, 9, 1 yields a spiking radar chart (which goes in and out), while reordering the data as 9, 9, 9, 1, 1, 1 instead yields two distinct wedges (sectors). In some cases there is a natural structure, and radar charts can be well-suited.

  8. Wedge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wedge

    They were first made of simple stone. Perhaps the first example of a wedge is the hand axe (see also Olorgesailie), which is made by chipping stone, generally flint, to form a bifacial edge, or wedge. A wedge is a simple machine that transforms lateral force and movement of the tool into a transverse splitting force and movement of the workpiece.

  9. 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.
