Ahmed?!!! Really? Wow, that will be a great reference for me! cause i just started my thesis researching in references And studies around what has been done before, so that would be awesome, real thanks,

my Email:

M.Soheylifard@gmail.com

it'll be my honor to read your Thesis.

Well...I did my undergraduate thesis on Islamic geometries and patterns not only for the ornamentation but also the way it was used in forming constructive elements of built form. If you are interested I can send few parts of my thesis through email....send me your email ID.

great, so it'll be my pleasure to know about your prospects...information sharing will be appreciated, thank you bro!

Interesting research ...Even I like such attitude of working towards Islamic Architecture....

goooood！

Wow! that cmnt was real useful,

yep, I'm working on Islamic Architecture, but with a new perspective which defines a greater line between structure and energy based upon Islamic attitudes to material and efficient buildings (like some interactions between daylight and structures which are located as some sun radiation control systems, more on a systematized relations between both fields).

Are you working on Islamic Architecture?

Yes it only takes shells, beams and columns. It means that you need to import only line geometry into GSA. Actually I do not have much experience but if you want to do analysis for walls and slabs I would recommend karamba or Diana (without grasshopper plugin). I have worked a bit in Diana but it is bit complicated. If you can convert elements as beams and columns then according to my view GSA is very user friendly to handle….thanks for your appreciation.

Real thanks for explaining,

actually i was looking for something as the same you've got, the approach is to simulate some model of traditional structure elements, as I've been using Karamba, the challenge could be solved by this kind of great plug-in, but as a matter fact it takes place on shells and beams only (maybe we can convert high-weight past architecture elements to shells and beams). i just checked out GSA suite website, it will be my pleasure by sharing any kind of experiences about traditional structure analysis if you have!

Thanks again for sharing your work, it made me motivated for going through sth awesome as you've marked!

I have created geometry using rhino and grasshopper and later imported to GSA suite for structural performance. It is the software based on finite element method, which calculates different forces, when applying with different load cases. It also allows exploring with different materials and sizes of geometry. There is also a plugin that connects the grasshopper with the GSA suite and in that case geometry can be exploit parametrically.
