SIMULATIONS OF THE PROPERTIES OF ELONGATED HEXAGONAL DODECAHEDRON SYSTEMS
This study considers a 3D basic unit-cell proposed for auxetic and non-auxetic foams namely the elongated hexagonal dodecahedron deforming through changes in angle between its ligaments (idealised hinging model). This structure was studied in detail for

Spacetime is composed of a fluctuating arrangement of bubbles or loops called spacetime foam, or quantum foam. We use the holographic principle to deduce its structure, and show that the result is consistent with gedanken experiments involving spacetime measurements.
