PlatonicOctahedron

A regular octahedron.

Constructor

PlatonicOctahedron(L)

Parameters:

  • L, length of the edge

Usage

As for any other Form factor.

Implementation

Class PlatonicOctahedron inherits from the interface class IFormFactor .

Form factor computation is based on the generic form factor of a polyhedron provided by libformfactor .

Volume has been validated against $$ V= \dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{3}L^3. $$

More general:

Example

Scattering by uncorrelated, oriented octahedra for horizontal incidence:
