simulation - application of forces on a wooden structure - bent wood design

Hello everyone,

this is a structure that I developed by using a simple paper surface and by applying mainly horizontal forces to it.

In the picture below you can see the basic shape before and after the application of the forces ...

The structure is designed to be then realized by using bent wood panels.

To stabilize the whole stucture, two methods are avaiable: the first one is to create a double shell with spacers inbetween (and other covering elements) and the second one is to insert element between the various openings. (see photos below)

Method 1.

Method 2.

Problem: I have to build two models, one for each type of structure, by using 1mm plywood panels. (Dimension more or less 60x40 cm).

The only way to obtain the exactly shape of the all pieces of the model (for laser cutting techniques) ist to digitalize the structure, or rather to simulate the bending of the panel after the application of the forces.

I create the surface with Rhino and now my question is: is there a method to simulate the bending of the wood panel with its cuts or opening? …otherwise the pieces of the model will always be inaccurate and the whole model difficult to assemble…
