Index Entry

Prime Volumes:

"A prime volume has unique domains but does not have a nucleus.

"A prime volume is different from a generalized regenerative system. Generalized regenerative systems have nuclei; generalized prime volumes do not.

"There are only three prime volumes: tetrahedron, octahedron, and icosahedron. Prime volumes are characterized exclusively by external structural stability."
