I know I haven’t properly updated the Nudibranch examples on the GH forum, however since I have been getting a lot of requests to display what and how exactly this isosurface snapshot from the previous post about the release of Nudibranch works, i decided to spent a few hours to document this process and also share the definition.
Take a look at the following video. This definition uses two Nudibranch components the Satellites and the AttractorValues, combined with the Millipede’s isosurface component. Three or more satellite entities create a 3d non-uniformal field of values from 0.00 to 0.5 these values are fed to the isosurface component and Voila!!. No hustle animated complexity defined by certain rules ( number of attractors, equation for the values distribution <cos,sinc ect>. You can download the definition as usual from the [Sub]code page. And of course you must have Nudibranch and Millipede installed.. Enjoy.! Like this: Like Loading... Examples. Examples Bubble form finding with Large Deformation Variable bending stiffness in a randomly generated cell grid can be used to fine-tune the resulting shape.
The generated bubble-like form can then reassembled into a gridshell structure to reanaylse the forces. The Beam-Joints components is used to define connections of beams to the structural supports. Get the grasshopper definition here: BubbleFormFinding_largeDeformation.gh (requires […] Shell And Beam Shell and beam elements are combined into a single karamba model showing how an integrated shell and beam structure can be analysed. Shape Optimization VII – Tower Mesh Like the Shape Optimization with Galapagos III example, a tower made up of shell elements with horizontal loads and variable diameter along its height is optimized for minimum deflection using Galapagos.The image shows material utilization plus force flow lines. Shell – Disc with Hole Force flow lines in disc with hole in the middle and utilization of shell material. RhinoFabLab - Design + Optimization + Fabrication. Grasshopper basic. Unrolling Surfaces in Grasshopper.
This Grasshopper definition is proof of concept for a VB component that unrolls developable surfaces to the XY plane.
To make the component, I’ve adapted a rhinoscript by Andrew Kudless (of Matsys) to run in VB, enlisting the help of CCA student Ripon DeLeon to write the code.This example uses the VB component to create unrolled surfaces from 4 curves that I have distorted using the cage edit command in rhino. To use the definition on your own projects, simply choose any 4 curves to loft between in sequential order. The blocks of components are grouped somewhat clearly (I hope) so you can add more curves by copy-pasting more blocks and making the few required re-connections to make it work. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
For the above definition, I’ve added tabs along the edges of the unrolled surfaces for ease of attachment. Like this: Like Loading... [Sub]Code. This page is set up to host bits of codes and sample algorithms.
