- A tessellation is a regular pattern made up of flat shapes repeated and joined together without any gaps or overlaps. These shapes do not all need to be the same, but the pattern should repeat. Another word for tessellation is tiling.

- In musical notation, tessitura refers to the compass in which a piece of music lies—whether high or low, etc.—for a particular vocal (or less often instrumental) part. The tessitura of a piece is not decided by the extremes of its range, but rather by which part of the range is most used.

- A vertex of a tessellation is a point where three or more. corners of the tessellating shapes are joined. For example, these squares fit together to make one full. turn at a vertex, with no overlapping parts and no gaps. The square is therefore a regular polygon that tessellates. 3a. Look at the figure above. Draw a circle around any. vertex of this tessellation. 3b.

How does a tesseract describe a fourth-dimensional space? A tesseract is by definition a four dimensional shape consisting of 8 cubes folded in 4-space. The same way a cube is 6 squares folded in 3-space.

- Create a pattern design based on a tessellation. Start with creating a tessellation shape using the translation pattern (see the steps below). Your tessellation should be a recognizable (not abstract) object-animals, birds, insects, fish, etc. Trace your tessellation onto a drawing paper.reate a pattern design based on a tessellation.

Tessellation: The Geometry of Tiles, Honeycombs and M.C. Escher A dictionary * will tell you that the word tessellate means to form or arrange small squares in a checkered or mosaic pattern. The word tessellate is derived from the Ionic version of the Greek word tesseres, which in English means four.. The first tilings were made from square tiles.

Tesseract The Tesseract is an Infinity Stone of unparalleled power that is owned by Odin, it is now stored in Asgard. The cube is based on the Cosmic Cube in the Marvel Comics continuity. It exists in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and features predominantly in Captain America: The First Avenger and The Avengers.

Tessellations by Recognizable Figures To create a tessellation using the kite or dart pattern above, follow these steps: 1  Draw the kite or dart pattern by starting with parallelograms. 2  Alter one top edge of the kite or dart by replacing it with a curved or crooked line.  Glide-reflect that edge to the bottom of the kite or dart.

convolution Definition of convolution. 1 : a form or shape that is folded in curved or tortuous windings the convolutions of the intestines. 2 : one of the irregular ridges on the surface of the brain and especially of the cerebrum of higher mammals. 3 : a complication or intricacy of form, design, or structure … societies in which the convolutions of power and the caprices of the powerful are ever-present dangers to survival.

Tessellation These tiles may be polygons or any other shapes. Many tessellations are formed from a finite number of prototiles in which all tiles in the tessellation are congruent to the given prototiles. If a geometric shape can be used as a prototile to create a tessellation, the shape is said to tessellate or to tile the plane.

Vertex (geometry) Of a plane tiling. A vertex of a plane tiling or tessellation is a point where three or more tiles meet; generally, but not always, the tiles of a tessellation are polygons and the vertices of the tessellation are also vertices of its tiles.

Fractal The same fractal as above, magnified a 2000-fold, where the Mandelbrot set fine detail resembles the detail at low magnification. A fractal is a natural phenomenon or a mathematical set that exhibits a repeating pattern that displays at every scale. It is also known as expanding symmetry or evolving symmetry.If the replication is exactly the same at every scale, it is called a self-similar pattern.An example of this is the Menger Sponge. Fractals can also be nearly the same at different levels. This latter pattern is illustrated in the magnifications of the Mandelbrot set.Fractals also include the idea of a detailed pattern that repeats itself. Fractals are different from other geometric figures because of the way in which they scale.f the replication is exactly the same at every scale, it is called a self-similar pattern. An example of this is the Menger Sponge. Fractals can also be nearly the same at different levels. This latter pattern is illustrated in the magnifications of the Mandelbrot set.

Tessitura Tessitura, (Italian: “texture”), in music, the general range of pitches found in a melody or vocal part. It differs from the compass of a piece to the extent that it does not take into account the extremes of the piece’s range but is concerned with the way in which the vocal line is arranged or situated.

Metamorphism of Rocks: Definition, Process & Influencing Factors Recrystallization is the most common and is defined as the metamorphic process by which crystals are packed together creating a new crystal structure. Recrystallization requires a lot of heat and pressure, and the process changes the mineral's size and shape, yet the basic composition remains unchanged.

- A regular polygon has 3 or 4 or 5 or more sides and angles, all equal. A regular tessellation means a tessellation made up of congruent regular polygons. [Remember: Regular means that the sides and angles of the polygon are all equivalent (i.e., the polygon is both equiangular and equilateral). Congruent means that the polygons that you put together are all the same size and shape.].

budding gemmation. a method of release of virus from a cell after replication has taken place: viral protein associates itself with an area of cell membrane, which forms a coat or envelope around the virus; some cellular proteins in the area of budding are replaced by virus-coded proteins.

- The clothoid or double spiral is a curve, whose curvature grows with the distance from the origin. The radius of curvature is opposite proportional to its arc measured from the origin. The parameter form consists of two equations with Fresnel's integrals, which can only be solved approximately.

- •Foldsin rocks range from microscopic to hundreds of kilometers across. • Faults are fractures along which displacement has occurred. •Jointsare fractures where there has been no displacement. • Rocks deform when applied stress exceeds rock strength. Deformation may be ductile flow or brittle fracture.
