Usage: technical; geometry

Examples

• A cube is a regular hexahedral solid with all faces being equal squares.
• The hexahedral mesh is commonly used in finite element analysis for engineering simulations.
• The crystal exhibited a hexahedral structure under the microscope.
• Hexahedral elements are preferred in computational fluid dynamics for their stability.
• The architect designed the building with a hexahedral foundation to maximize structural integrity.
