Abstract
Abstract
The author considers the main principles of Bulienkov’s simplicial-modular design of metal clusters (face-centered cubic (FCC), body-centered cubic (BCC), hexagonal close-packed (HCP) metals). Models of clusters are presented along with algorithms for their construction based on operations of twinning ($$\bar {1}$$, 2, m) to simplices and modules of the corresponding metals.
