I've done some research about how to achieve this using various sources online. Mainly:

Millipede is a structural analysis and optimization component for grasshopper. It allows for very fast linear elastic analysis of frame and shell elements in 3d, 2d plate elements for in plane forces, and 3d volumetric elements. All systems can be optimized using built in topology optimization methods and have their results extracted and visualized in a variety of ways.

In addition millipede implements a few basic geometric features [extraction of iso surface meshes from volumetric…

Hey guys,

 

Here are two definitions that are really helpfull for me, i hope they are for you guys as well.

 

1) Complete (with side edges) hexagonal grid on any surface. There are some vb scripts out there but they dont give you the edges. Also the lunchbox plugin gives you only the individual lines, and some weird things happen at the edges. This def works 100%.

 

2) Complete diagrid (with side edges) on any surface. I think there are some vb scripts out…

The algorithm is simple.

First step is to build a surface Normal field.And then use laplace equation to draw the polylines on which each normal are perpendicular to a same vector.  

The cons are obvious.Cause I use the  Normal field to draw polylines. Each mesh face is not quite…

Hi there

Quite new to grasshopper so wondering if there is anyone out there who can lend a hand.

Basically, I have been using a locust particle definition to create geomerty of lines connecting a swarm of points. The points become nodes and the lines connecting them are branches.

I Would like to experiment with…

There is currently a large piece of the San Antonio Public Auditorium that is missing.  Someday this hole will be filled with the Tobin Center for the Performing Arts.  Until that happens, check out this post which documents the modeling that went into the Veil, the exterior cladding…

What:

A workshop where the parametric understanding of digital fabrication will lead to the manufacture of a  1 to 1 wooden pavilion. A cad/cam approach will drive the deployment of a mass customized chandelier where the  process of design is perceived within the wide network of new digital…

'THE SWARM' is a parametrical designed, free-standing, sculptural pavilion. It develops its form from the theme of a flying flock of birds. By joining 211 individual, CNC-milled modules the result is a play of density, light and shadow. The focus is yet on the characteristic features of a swarm of birds. The curve gives the pavilion the dynamic of a passing flock of…

I haven't had much time to experiment with Grasshopper the last months and didn't get to help out at the forum much either. So to contribute something, I figured it was time for me to make my first blog post. It's about animation in Grasshopper.

I noticed some related discussions pass by, and I saw …

kabai.hu - Website of Sándor Kabai, geometry professor from Hungary. Lots of information about geometric patterns, rhombic structures, Mathematica graphics, pattern generation, and other projects about geometry. Be sure to check his Rhombic Structures…

We’re developing a set of Grasshopper user objects to generate sun study diagrams using the DIVA sun vector component.  This post focuses on the overshadowing diagram, a powerful metric which offers comprehensive analysis for point of interest shading.
