Kratka vsebina

In the present study we analyse different patterns commonly encountered in nature. Firstly, we review patterns that display the hexagonal symmetry and triply periodic minimal surfaces. We analyse hexagonal honeycomb configurations and analyse advantages of such an architecture. Next, we use a simple Landau-type order parameter field model to illustrate how diverse patterns could be generated via the symmetry breaking mechanism.
