o---FANCYWIRES--{>} GRASSHOPPER TUTORIALS + EXERCISES | ex-Lab The exercises below test basic competence using Grasshopper. Attempt to complete the exercises and if you need extra help refer to the tutorial PDFs. This tutorial introduces students to the workflow of Grasshopper by creating a simple definition that takes a reference direction from input curves and re-orients them to face an attractor point. This tutorial extends upon tutorial 01 by creating a simple definition that analyses the curvature of a doubly curved surface and indicates how this could be further extended to manipulate material qualities to achieve complex double curvature from perforations in a flat sheet. This tutorial will panel a surface with a specified grid of polylines using triangular, rectangular, hexagonal and radial grids. Using a series of data manipulations, colour information from an image is used to inform a complex outcome.
Rhino ++ Grasshopper – Plethora Project Plethora-Project.com is an initiative to accelerate computational literacy in the frame of architecture and design. It aligns with the "show me your screens" motto of the TopLap live-coding group attempting to get rid of Obscurantism in digital design. Directed by Jose Sanchez Contact me at : jomasan@gmail.com Bio: Jose Sanchez is an Architect / Programmer / Game Designer based in Los Angeles, California. He is partner at Bloom Games, start-up built upon the BLOOM project, winner of the WONDER SERIES hosted by the City of London for the London 2012 Olympics. He is the director of the Plethora Project (www.plethora-project.com), a research and learning project investing in the future of on-line open-source knowledge.

This is a simple example of its application set up to solve for a 10-point voronoi division within a user-defined boundary where all the parts are divided as equally as possible in terms of their areas. Gradient Patterns Testing different patterns with grasshopper. Pagora Bench Playing with hopper and Maxwell 2 Two Surfaces Twisted Box It’s been a while I’ve played with Grasshopper. In order to use the definition, first define a box, and some geometries within the box as your base component. Two Surface Space Frame (Rhino Explicit History) Ah so, the new version of the Explicit History plug-in for Rhino is out. This is another way of creating space frames using U/V divisions from two surfaces. crtli_gh_space_frame.wrmcrtli_gh_space_frame.3dm Rhino Explicit History Surface Blend
Biomimesis and the Geometric Definition of Shell Structures in Architecture Semra Arslan Selcuk, PhD Candidate Department of Architecture, Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey . e-mail: semra@arch.metu.edu.tr Al J Fisher, MEng Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering, University of Bath, UK . e-mail: a.j.fisher@bath.ac.uk Chris JK Williams, MA, PhD, MIStructE e-mail: c.j.k.williams@bath.ac.uk In architecture the concept of biomimesis ( bios , meaning life, mimesis, meaning to imitate , also known as biomimetics) can be applied to the design of tree-like, web-like, skeleton-like, pneumatic and shell-like structures. Shell structures may be constructed from masonry, concrete or a grid of steel or timber members – a lattice or reticulated shell. 1. A shell is a three dimensional curved structure which resists load through its inherent curvature. There are many precedents of the use of natural forms and phenomena as the basis for architectural geometry. In 1964 Frei Otto founded the Institute of Lightweight Structures at the University of Stuttgart. 2.

RhinoVAULT Beta Funicular Form Finding The Rhinoceros ® Plug-In rhinoVAULT emerged from current research on structural form finding using the Thrust-Network-Approach to intuitively create and explore compression-only structures. Using reciprocal diagrams, it provides an intuitive, fast method, adopting the same advantages of techniques such as Graphic Statics, but offering a viable extension to fully three-dimensional problems. Mission Our goal is to share key aspects of our research in a comprehensible and transparent setup to let one not only create beautiful shapes but also to give the user an understanding of the underlying structural principles. Disclaimer The development of RhinoVAULT is currently supported by the BLOCK Research Group at ETH Zurich.
