Encoding Fullerenes and Geodesic Domes
Coxeter’s classification of the highly symmetric geodesic domes (and, by duality, the highly symmetric fullerenes) is extended to a classification scheme for all geodesic domes and fullerenes. Each geodesic dome is characterized by its signature: a plane graph on twelve vertices with labeled angles and edges. In the case of the Coxeter geodesic domes, the plane graph is the icosahedron, all ang...
متن کاملIcosadeltahedral geometry of fullerenes, viruses and geodesic domes
I discuss the symmetry of fullerenes, viruses and geodesic domes within a unified framework of icosadeltahedral representation of these objects. The icosadeltahedral symmetry is explained in details by examination of all of these structures. Using Euler’s theorem on polyhedra, it is shown how to calculate the number of vertices, edges, and faces in domes, and number of atoms, bonds and pentagon...
متن کاملSphere Packing for Regularisation of Lattice Domes
The paper provides a methodology for finding a family of patterns for lattice domes, created based on the “Surface Sphere Packing” concept. The patterns have a high degree of regularity in the sense of a high percentage of the elements being of the same length. Also, parametric formulation for generating such patterns are discussed. This gives an opportunity for creating more regular patterns w...
متن کاملSensitivity in the structural behavior of shallow arches
It is well established that certain structural buckling problems are extremely sensitive to small changes in configuration: geometric imperfections, load application, symmetry, boundary conditions, etc. This paper considers the behavior of a very shallow arch under lateral point loading, and specifically under the influence of changes in the thermal environment. In some ways the system under st...
متن کاملMETAHEURISTIC-BASED SIZING AND TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION AND RELIABILITY ASSESSMENT OF SINGLE-LAYER LATTICE DOMES
Economy and safety are two important components in structural design process and stablishing a balance between them indeed results in improved structural performance specially in large-scale structures including space lattice domes. Topology optimization of geometrically nonlinear single-layer lamella, network, and geodesic lattice domes is implemented using enhanced colliding-bodies optimizati...
