Beek considered a ratio, k, of dwell time divided by hand cycle time.       • The Talk Outline Tessellation k = 3/4

Hand cycle time is the sum of the vacant time and dwell time so:

k = D/(V + D)

Values measured in seconds for each ratio k calculated from Shannon's special case: 3V + D = 2 F = 1.152 sec.
Ratio k Flight time Dwell time Vacant time Six toss cycle time
3/4 0.576 0.576 0.192 2.304
2/3 0.576 0.461 0.230 ?.???
1/2 0.576 0.288 0.288 1.728
