Superspheres: Intermediate Shapes between Spheres and Polyhedra

Using an <em>x-y-z</em> coordinate system, the equations of the superspheres have been extended to describe intermediate shapes between a sphere and various convex polyhedra. Near-polyhedral shapes composed of {100}, {111} and {110} surfaces with round edges are treated i...
