B. Fixed angle

  • The loops show continuous transformations of flexible hexagons with a fixed angle α (fixed diagonal q).
  • There are stops at boats and crosses (q < 1) or at boats and twists (q > 1). The smallest diagonal (dashed line) appears in boats and the largest (solid line) in crosses or twists.
  • In B1-B8 a q-triangle and in B9-B11 the prime symmetry axis remain fixed in space.
  • The assigned diagonal point of the representation in Figure 12 right (see manuscript) would move along an iso-q-curve.
