Adding color by customizing the default Grasshopper preview in Rhino is a way to build more dynamic representations by adding a level of detail and information overlay to the geometry on screen. Design Patterns in GH. [FORMul[a]RCH] Threading Grasshopper. An alternative title might be Why CAD software hasn’t gotten any faster in the last three years.

Threading Grasshopper

Simply, most CAD software is written to take advantage of only one processor, leaving the other three processors in your shiny new Quad-core i7 idle. The solution to the multi-processor problem is threading. Parametric Structure Models in Grasshopper. The first Geometry Gym plug-in for Grasshopper with Structural model Interaction has just been uploaded. http:\\www.geometrygym.com/downloads Versions for GSA, Strand7/Straus7 and Sofistik are available, other modelling interaction will soon follow (ie SAP, SDNF, Robot etc).

Parametric Structure Models in Grasshopper

If you want to influence the priority list for release, send me an email with which version you'd like to use. So, here's a screen capture demonstrating the use of the plug-in, and sending the parametric model out of Rhino into GSA (similar for Strand7, Sofistik and others). Parking Generator (working definition) Grasshopper algorithmic modeling for Rhino Parking Generator (working definition) This definition is sloppy at the moment and needs a lot of work.

Parking Generator (working definition)

The parking counts are not accurate (it counts lines instead of spaces) and the generating spaces need work as well. I'm posting the progress though in case anyone wants to check it out.

Karamba. Karamba 1.0.5 is now available for download and includes the following new features and bug-fixes.

Karamba 1.0.5 contains these new features: A simplified installation procedure. Iso- and stream-lines with user supplied values and vectors at mesh-vertices (unlimited mesh-size also in the FREE-version of Karamba). Benchmark examples with known results from literature for the evaluation of calculation […] This intensive 4 day design/fabricate/build workshop explored digital form-finding techniques to produce a series of scaled architectural prototypes for freestanding pavilion structures. Two student teams each developed a proposal through dynamic meshrelaxation processes to simulate the formation of a tensioned membrane structure.

Candela Revisited The pavilion was designed by Zaha Hadid Architects London for the China International Architectural Biennal. Drainage Direction Script. I made a python script that estimates the direction of drainage paths on a surface.

DDA\Repository. Andrea Graziano Twitter. Work/rabbit/tutorials/ How to build a Grasshopper component with Visual Studio in VB.Net. By Jonatan Schumacher: Jonatan[at]JSchumacher[dot]com This step-by-step tutorial showcases how to create a simple, but comprehensive Grasshopper component in VB.Net, using Visual Studio 2010 . It was created with the tutorials by David Rutten, which you can find in the help file for the Grasshopper SDK. David explains some of the actions in better detail, so I would suggest looking at his documentation simultaneously. This tutorial covers a few additional steps such as adding an icon and debugging the code. We will start all the way in the beginning with the project setup: Open Visual Studio and create a “New Project”: From the ‘Installed Templates’ menu, select ‘Visual Basic’, and then ‘Class Library’. 1_NewVBClass Save the VB project by selecting “Save All” from the File Menu:

Visari to Grasshopper. Click image above 2 watch video Autodesk is developing a new program, ‘Vasari’, which allows for quick and efficient wind and heat gain analysis.

Visari to Grasshopper

A common problem is pulling information across from these types of programs, like EcoTect, into a designers environment like Rhino and Grasshopper or 3D Studio. Without a proper SDK, or the understanding thereof, it is a frustrating and irritating process. In the academic environment this is an important part of any software package, the ability to jump between software. ParametricModel - a library of parts.
