Non-periodic Packings of Icosahedral Polyhedra
A method for deriving packings of icosahedral polyhedra from periodic and non-periodic space grids based on icosahedral symmetry is presented. Corresponding to the three axes of symmetry, three classes of packings exist. For each class, an inter-transforming family of 64 (theoretically) possible packings is suggested. Their details remain to be worked out and examples are illustrated with packings of icosahedra.
