Description

Elevating tessellations to act as nets for geodesic domes have many applications in structural engineering, math, and synthetic biology. In this paper I describe a net and a 3D version of a heptagon-containing polyhedra, as well as sphericity measurements for different polyhedra to aid space-filling applications.
