Hi John ... The paper says that the inversion spheres overlap in the icosahedron configuration. Maybe this leads to overlap of the spheres being packed. ...
dharmraj, Almost...you have the 12 around 1 VE of spheres. Then you have but 6 spheres...this is not the mecon yet. From the generator.... use length 3 spheres...
dharmraj, To help with your cube-of-mites display, if you think of these spheres having a diameter not of 1.0 but of root 2...as per Paul's program... then ALL...
Hi Adrian ... [dels] ... OK, I guess he knows what he's talking about, but he does it with a tetrahedron of balls, and an icosa of balls is nothing but 20...
