No acute tetrahedron is an 8-reptile
نویسنده
چکیده
An r-gentiling is a dissection of a shape into r ≥ 2 parts which are all similar to the original shape. An r-reptiling is an r-gentiling of which all parts are mutually congruent. This article shows that no acute tetrahedron is an r-gentile or r-reptile for any r < 9, by showing that no acute spherical diangle can be dissected into less than nine acute spherical triangles.

Acute Triangulations of Archimedean Surfaces . The Truncated Tetrahedron
In this paper we prove that the surface of the regular truncated tetrahedron can be triangulated into 10 non-obtuse geodesic triangles, and also into 12 acute geodesic triangles. Furthermore, we show that both triangulations have minimal size.
متن کاملSpacing Control and Sliver-free Delaunay Mesh
|We are often required to generate a Delaunay mesh whose element size is within a constant factor of a control spacing function, i.e., well-conformed, in addition to the fact that each mesh element has small aspect ratio, i.e., well-shaped. However, generating wellshaped Delaunay meshes is an open problem for a long time. Observe that slivers have small radius-edge ratio thus the Delaunay trian...
متن کامل3D cache-oblivious multi-scale traversals of meshes using 8-reptile polyhedra
In the field of numerical simulation, a multi-scale grid and its traversal can have a huge impact on the cache-efficiency of the calculations performed. We present the Haverkort element traversal and refinement scheme which is based on the bisection of 8-reptile tetrahedra. We developed a stack-assignment scheme that allows the Haverkort traversal to use stacks for storing the input data, the o...
متن کاملMoving house: long-term dynamics of corticosterone secretion are unaltered in translocated populations of a rare reptile (the tuatara, Sphenodon punctatus)
Translocations are an important conservation tool used to restore at-risk species to their historical range. Unavoidable procedures during translocations, such as habitat disturbance, capture, handling, processing, captivity, transport and release to a novel environment, have the potential to be stressful for most species. In this study, we examined acute and chronic stress (through the measure...
متن کاملMesh Refinement Based on the 8-Tetrahedra Longest- Edge Partition
The 8-tetrahedra longest-edge (8T-LE) partition of any tetrahedron is defined in terms of three consecutive edge bisections, the first one performed by the longest-edge. The associated local refinement algorithm can be described in terms of the polyhedron skeleton concept using either a set of precomputed partition patterns or by a simple edgemidpoint tetrahedron bisection procedure. An effecti...
