geometry , the square gyrobicupola is one of theJohnson solid s ("J"29). Like thesquare orthobicupola ("J"28), it can be obtained by joining twosquare cupola e ("J"4) along their bases. The difference is that in this solid, the two halves are rotated 45 degrees with respect to one another.The "square gyrobicupola" is the second in an infinite set of gyrobicupolae.
The 92 Johnson solids were named and described by
Norman Johnson in1966 .External links
