¶ Octet Truss as an Invention

Index Entry
“…Down to the minutest atomic components, the octet truss is therefore proved to be synergetic, and its discovery as a structure-in contradistinction to its aesthetic or superficial appearance–is synergetic in performance; that is, its behavior as a whole is unpredicted by its parts. This makes its discovery as a structure a true surprise, and therefore it is a true invention.”
