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:
