凸均匀堆砌

几何学中,凸均匀堆砌,又称三维凸均匀蜂巢体(英语:Convex uniform honeycomb),是一种三维正密铺,由凸均匀多面体组成且能够填满欧几里得空间。

四面体-八面体堆砌是28种三维欧几里得空间的均匀堆砌之一,由黄色的四面体和红色的八面体相间构成。

已知存在28种有此性质的堆砌(蜂巢体):

  • 立方体堆砌及其七个变换;
  • 四面体-八面体堆砌英语tetrahedral-octahedral honeycomb及其四个变换;
  • 十种柱体形式的平面半正镶嵌(若包含立方体堆砌则为11种);
  • 5种由上面的几何体通过延伸或回转变换之几何体。

它们可以被认为是平面镶嵌在三维空间的类比。
