3D models

1. Small rhombihexahedron

Small rhombihexahedron
U18 The small rhombihexahedron (or small rhombicube) is the uniform polyhedron whose dual is the small rhombihexacron. It is a faceted version of the small rhombicuboctahedron. The convex hull of the small rhombihexahedron is the Archimedean small rhombicuboctahedron, whose dual is the deltoidal icositetrahedron, so the dual of the small rhombihexahedron (small rhombihexacron) is one of the stellations of the deltoidal icositetrahedron.

Faces: 12 squares and 6 regular octagons | Edges: 48 | Vertices: 24 | Dihedral angles: 45° and 90°. More…


2. Small rhombihexacron

Small rhombihexacron
The small rhombihexacron (or small dipteral disdodecahedron) is the dual polyhedron of the small rhombihexahedron. It is visually identical to the small hexacronic icositetrahedron and its faces are antiparallelograms (bowties) formed by pairs of coplanar triangles.

Faces: 24 antiparallelograms | Edges: 48 | Vertices: 18 | Dihedral angle: 138.12°. More…


3. Great Rhombihexahedron

Great Rhombihexahedron
U21 The great rhombihexahedron (or great rhombicube) is the uniform polyhedron whose dual is the great rhombihexacron. The convex hull of the great rhombihexahedron is the Archimedean truncated cube, whose dual is the small triakis octahedron, so the dual of the great rhombihexahedron (great rhombihexacron) is one of the stellations of the small triakis octahedron.

Faces: 12 squares and 6 regular octagrams | Edges: 48 | Vertices: 24 | Dihedral angles: 45° and 90°. More…


4. Great Rhombihexacron

Great Rhombihexacron
The great rhombihexacron (or great dipteral disdodecahedron) is the dual of the uniform great rhombihexahedron. It has 12 outer vertices which have the same vertex arrangement as the cuboctahedron, and 6 inner vertices with the vertex arrangement of an octahedron. It can be seen as visually similar to a Catalan solid disdyakis dodecahedron.

Small dodecicosacron
The small dodecicosacron (or small dipteral trisicosahedron) is the dual of uniform polyhedron small dodecicosahedron. It is visually identical to the small ditrigonal dodecacronic hexecontahedron and part of each face lies inside the solid, hence is invisible in solid models.

Great dodecicosacron
The great dodecicosacron (or great dipteral trisicosahedron) is the dual of uniform polyhedron great dodecicosahedron. It has 60 intersecting bow-tie-shaped (antiparallelograms) faces and part of each face lies inside the solid, hence is invisible in solid models.
