2- Flat Pipe connection
In this Paracourse lesson, we are going to model a multi-pipe connection in Grasshopper. First, we will study how the connection can be modeled and then we will use advanced techniques to model it.

In this grasshopper example file, you can deform a base surface by twisting it and creating a series of panels by using the lunchbox Plugin.
In this grasshopper example file you can model a simple parametric fractal branching model using the anemone plugin.
In this grasshopper example file, You can use a simplex noise field to simulate the moving of a series of strips using the Kangaroo Plugin.
In this grasshopper example file, you can model parametric polygonal slabs with different radius numbers by dividing a line parametrically.
In this grasshopper example file you can use the Mesh+ plugin and weaverbird to make a bridge between two surfaces and model a parametric chair.
In this grasshopper definition You can model a deformed circular bench using Grasshopper's native components .
In this grasshopper example file, you can model a foldable skyscraper using the Kangaroo plugin. By changing the Parameters you can fold the main curves.
In this grasshopper example file, you can divide a surface into a series of panels and then randomly select the panels and extrude them. We have used the Lunchbox Plugin to model the panels.
In this Parakeet Plugin Example You can make a series of rotating curves by using the "Reflection Point" component. By connecting the polylines to the Fatten plugin you can have a colourful visualization of these rotating curves.
In this grasshopper example file, you can deform a mesh by moving its vertices in their normal direction and based on a Gaussian distribution.
In this grasshopper definition, you can run a particle base swarm moving through the closest vector field component made by pufferfish and anemone plugin. The Anemone Plugin is used to make the iterations and control the loops.
In this grasshopper example file you can model an Auxetic structure using the native grasshopper Components.
In this Parakeet Plugin Example you can use the Flow Path component to Generate a Fluid Flow Path on a Mesh.
In this grasshopper example file you can model a parametric joint using the Cocoon and meshplus plugin.
In this definition we have used the Pufferfish's "Recrusive Morph Mesh" to produce patterns on a mesh. This component Recursively morphs mesh geometries onto a base mesh.
In this Kangaroo Plugin example you can model a tensile structure with a central curve modifier. The corners of the mesh has been used as the anchors and the "On curve" component has been used to keep the surface on the curve.
In this grasshopper example file by using a Delaunay mesh combined with the pipe variable component, you can model a parametric pattern.
In this grasshopper example file, you can divide a mesh based on the fibonacci sequence and stellate each face relative to their area.
In this pufferfish plugin example you can use the Tween through Surface component to produce surfaces between multiple target surfaces and control their count and distribution.
In this grasshopper example file, Using a series of circles and moving them upwards, we have created a wall with graph component. In one part of the pipes, a semicircle has been removed.
In this grasshopper example file, you can voxelize a series of parametric random points which are based on some curves as their emitter sources.
In this grasshopper example file you can use the mesh+ plugin to model a series of random pattern in a simple facade.
In this grasshopper definition you can make pseudo reaction diffusion using Weaverbird Plugin. This grasshopper definition is inspired by Junichiro Horikawa.
In this grasshopper example file you can create a stellated mesh and split it with a parametric plane.

Hi, this looks like very interesting definition! My question is if it works if the points are not laying on one plane?
Thanks!

Hi
This is for flat connections..we are doing some research for the 3d connections in space

Depending on what you’re doing, and if you don’t mind the hub or connecting point being nonplanar, then adding the flow along surface component could do the trick.
parametric
That’s also a good fast solution, Thanks, and Thumbs up
we will also try to study it geometrically in the near future

Looks like Flow Along Surface is now called, Sporph.
parametric
Yes, they changed it! 🙂
