    The first is to count the number of quarter turns. The second is to count the number of outer-layer twists, called "face turns". A move to turn an outer layer two quarter (90°) turns in the same direction would be counted as two moves in the quarter turn metric (QTM), but as one turn in the face metric (FTM, or HTM "Half Turn Metric").

    Cube layer A cube layer is a one-cubie-thick slice of the cube perpendicular to its axis of rotation. Outer layers (faces) contain more cubies than inner layers. For a cube of size , there will be layers along any given axis. Cube face The meaning of a cube face depends on the context in which it is used.

  4. Rubik's Revenge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubik's_Revenge

    A solved Rubik's Revenge cube. The Rubik's Revenge (also known as the 4×4×4 Rubik's Cube) is a 4×4×4 version of the Rubik's Cube.It was released in 1981. Invented by Péter Sebestény, the cube was nearly called the Sebestény Cube until a somewhat last-minute decision changed the puzzle's name to attract fans of the original Rubik's Cube. [1]

  5. Layer by layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layer_by_layer

    Layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition is a thin film fabrication technique. The films are formed by depositing alternating layers of complementary materials with wash steps in between. This can be accomplished by using various techniques such as immersion, spin, spray, electromagnetism, or fluidics. [1]

    The Master Pyraminx has 4 layers and 16 triangles-per-face (compared to 3 layers and 9 triangles-per-face of the original), and is based on the Skewb Diamond mechanism. This version has about 2.6817 × 10 15 combinations. [6] [7] The Master Pyraminx has 4 "tips" (same as the original Pyraminx) 4 "middle axials" (same as the original Pyraminx)

  7. Transfer-matrix method (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer-matrix_method...

    Propagation of a ray through a layer. The transfer-matrix method is a method used in optics and acoustics to analyze the propagation of electromagnetic or acoustic waves through a stratified medium; a stack of thin films. [1] [2] This is, for example, relevant for the design of anti-reflective coatings and dielectric mirrors.

  8. CFOP method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFOP_method

    Cube mid-solve on the OLL step. The CFOP method (Cross – F2L (first 2 layers) – OLL (orientate last layer) – PLL (permutate last layer)), also known as the Fridrich method, is one of the most commonly used methods in speedsolving a 3×3×3 Rubik's Cube. It is one of the fastest methods with the other most notable ones being Roux and ZZ.

  9. Soma cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soma_cube

    Similar to Soma cube is the 3D pentomino puzzle, which can fill boxes of 2×3×10, 2×5×6 and 3×4×5 units. The Bedlam cube is a 4×4×4 sided cube puzzle consisting of twelve pentacubes and one tetracube. The Diabolical cube is a puzzle of six polycubes that can be assembled together to form a single 3×3×3 cube.
