You can think of it as some kind of antiprism that has been inserted into the shape like the meat in a burger.
Once you have found one it can be used to either elongate (or gyroelongate) the model in the same way it was done in the Johnson solids, turning the model into a tube or reducing it by removing the strip.
A simpler thing you could test to get variants is to identify a closed line (like each of the white lines). They separate the model into two parts that you can rotate relative to each other.
For instance, if the line is 8 vertices long, it means that you can rotate one half 8 times and get potentially 8 different models.
This does not guarantee that the model is valid though unless the line already makes a regular polygon.
This operation also changes the connectivity most of the time.
