The leda atomicus. Curve array + mesh piping •September 7, 2010 • 2 Comments Simple mirrored system using piped meshes to easily generate dense geometries.
L-Sytem, Octree, Structural Mesh •September 3, 2010 • Leave a Comment Experimentation with scale on the meshing definition: Space Framing •August 31, 2010 • 9 Comments. July 2011. In this post I will present a workflow for using the laser scanner to create elements for sculptural compositions.
The illustration above presents the finished composition composed of a Nurbs Surface and linear contour elements. The data was scanned in an earlier post Black Power Nkisi: Laser Scan. Organicités Piraeus Tower. So far my project was more about the deformation process of the initial Piraeus Tower’s skin.
3d Mandelbrot isosurface - Grasshopper. Façade Porosity Adaptive to Sun Path Grasshopper Definition. Creating photo-adaptive facades or building envelopes is a logic and technique I have used several times.
I helped out a friend last week on the same topic, so I thought of assembling a GH definition to share a similar routine.. In this case a random surface gets tessellated and then perforated accordingly to the reflection sun angle on the surface… Angles closer to zero degrees (vertical to the surface normal) provides as with darker panel. On the other hand greater angles, enable larger solar penetration. 3D Printing Flexible Grids. We’re constantly looking for new examples of what we can print using our 3d printer.
I tend to enjoy the prints that have lots of little parts that can move. It’s great to print something with over 600 parts, and not have to put all of those pieces together. We worked on a part in the past that had a ball and socket joint and we found that we could minimize the gap between two pieces to .1 mm (.00394″) and they would still be separate after printing. Grasshopper « WeWantToLearn.net. Philosophical Statement: Inti: The Incan Sun God, his face portrayed as a gold disk from which rays and flames extended.
Inti is the Sun and controls all that implies: warmth, light and sunshine. During the festival of Inti Ramyi, held during the Summer Solstice, Inti is celebrated with much drinking, singing and dancing - special statues are made of wood are burned at the end of the festival. This sculpture is an extended physical manifestation of this; decadent ritualism and a spiritual experience. Inti incorporates 288 petals are self-assembled into 12 concentric rings, with each petal representing the hours of the day and each ring every month of the year.
Yannis Chatzikonstantinou. Grasshopper. This definition divides a given surface and flattens each quad section to be unrolled to a grid on the xy plane.
Once unrolled each face is then flattened and given tabs for reconstruction. Labels are provided. Owen Architects - Online Professional Portfolio. Experimenting with trusses.
There are many ways to make a truss, this is a simple method and ready to apply to (almost) any surface just define which surface you wish to use and it will automativally generate it. Make sure to use the expanded version of the definition when dealing with more complicated surfaces (shown to the left in dark green). FABRICATION STUDIO for CNC LASER CUTTING. ALEX HOFREFE-RHINO DEFINITIONS. This definition was developed for my final thesis project to generate a louver system based on functional requirements within the building.
The performance was then tested in Ecotect. A large part of my thesis design involved invertible arena seating with many moving parts. I used Grasshopper as a means to develop the seating testing clearances, site lines, and many other variables. This definition looks at taking any curved surface, and generating weaving geometry across it. The parametric skyscraper uses Grasshopper to generate the entire structure. My favorite definition to date, this definition generates box designs based on real boxes I crafted in the wood shop while in Grad school.
Rhino/Grasshopper. Grasshopper+ Tutorials. Data studies « data animal. A bicycle-mounted roving detective kit for urban investigation designer: Ryan Lewandowski Fastened to a bike via a shock mount, Sherloc is a battery operated urban sensor device that records the temperature, humidity, light, and airborne particulate matter that is then geolocated with the onboard GPS device.
This information is stored as a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file that can be easily mapped within Grasshopper to create parametrically driven data landscapes or surfaces for a city or site. The device will take readings once every 2-4 seconds. Once your trip has been completed, just press the power switch to end the recording. Sherloc also has o-ring mounts for an iPhone. iPhone attachment. Representation AK3. IaaC Blog » Pablo Rica. Mode Lab. Rhino+Grasshopper. Grasshopper Voronoi diagram (update) – @improved. GhPython. For designers who want to use the same flexible language everywhere, GhPython is the Python interpreter component for Grasshopper that allows to execute dynamic scripts of any type. Unlike other scripting components, GhPython allows to use the rhinoscriptsyntax to start scripting without needing to be a programmer. Once on-board and with some practice, you can also get the most of external Python and .Net modules and libraries.
This component is open-source, and works in Rhino 5. Join this group to receive updates of new versions, and visit the Grasshopper forum for support. To install: In Grasshopper, choose File > Special Folders > Components folder. Downloads: License:
