Luis Gil who is currently a candidate for a Master in Design Studies (MDesS) degree at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design, developed a useful tool to dynamically create and edit staircases via Grasshopper.
Strawberry Tools
Strawberry Lab is an initiative to create free tools for structural engineers to tackle specific bottle-necks in their workflow. Tools that they are creating are automating areas of modelling and loading for cases with large amounts of structural elements.
2- List Data
In the second Grasshopper Python tutorial we are going to cover how you can use List data in Python and extract and use each item. We will also Rebuild the move component in Python.
6- Boolean Box
In this Paracourse Lesson, we are going to model a parametric 3d pattern which is based on a solid difference of a parametric box with smaller boxes located at the corners.
Peregrine
Peregrine is a LimitState:FORM powered optimization plugin for Grasshopper, the visual programming language and environment for Rhino3D.
Human UI
Human UI by andheum is a new interface paradigm for Grasshopper. Create professional looking Grasshopper apps with custom user interfaces without writing any code.
9- Flexhopper
In this Paracourse Lesson, you will learn how to simulate the collision of a series of random particles with spheres by using the Flexhopper plugin.
Gosper-Peano Curve
Here, Tuğrul Yazar studied a space-filling fractal called Gosper-Peano curve. You should have Anemone components installed in order to run this definition. The generator curve is a special one.
SeaGrass
SeaGrass is an adaptive surface panelling tool, that helps create Louvered Panels. SeaGrass is built against Grasshopper 1.0 (for Rhino 6.0).
Coding in Architecture
In this study by Asli Agirbas an elective undergraduate course is considered in the context of design and to yield a versatile thinking strategy while learning the language of visual programming.
Wavy Joint
In this grasshopper definition by Junichiro Horikawa you can model a series of wavy like curves with different distribution along the X axis.
Hitomezashi Pattern
The definition by Co-de-iT creates a specific Hitomezashi pattern.There are a Nurbs and a Mesh version of it.code by Andrea Graziano & Alessio Erioli, Co-de-iT 2020.
Interactive Brickworks Design
This research by Kereshmeh Afsari et al. looks into the parametric techniques that can be applied to create different kinds of patterns on brick walls. It discusses a methodology for an interactive brickwork design within generative techniques.
8- Rigid Body
In this Paracourse Lesson, we are going to use the kangaroo’s Rigid body component to simulate a series of boxes connected together. Then we are going to transform them by defining a point attractor.
The Golden Section
This example file by designcoding.net deals with the Golden Ratio.The rectangles whose dimensions were determined rotates around a center. this has been done by adding a rotation pattern.
9- Parakeet Pattern
In this example file you can use the grasshopper’s different grids combined with Parakeet’s Genotype A to produce interesting Patterns
OpenNest
OpenNest by petras_vestartas is a Grasshopper plugin with tools for unrolling, packing and of course nesting curves directly inside the definitions. The library is based on Boost 1.62 that is used to compute NFP – No Fit Polygon.
Adaptive Parameterisation
This thesis by David Stasiuk presents adaptive parameterisation as a method for formulating and developing complex computational design modelling systems, where open-ended design systems may be activated.
6- Roof Optimization
In this Paracourse Lesson we are going to use the millipede plugin combined with Galapagos to optimize the location of a series of columns for a simple roof. First we are going to define the geometric parameters for the columns and then define the structure.
3D Graphic Statics
3D Graphic Statics by Ognjen Graovac is a structural form-finding method for generating compression-only spatial forms. The static equilibrium is described by using two reciprocal diagrams – form and force.
Sine Waveform
In this Rhino grasshopper tutorial we are going to use a point attractor to make a sine wave on a mesh sphere. We will use the normal direction combined with the distance from the point attractor to model the wave like form.
Transformed Patterns
In this grasshopper definition you can use one of the Parakeet’s Plugin patterns. First we have transformed the pattern and then used the Millipede plugin to model a minimal surface between the two layers.
FlowL
flowL by uto is a plug-in to visualize a vector field, generated through positive and negative point charges. The path lines are calculated with the “Runge-Kutta 4th Order Method” short “RK4”.
Curve Mapping
In this grasshopper definition by using the Parakeet’s pattern genotype inside an hexagon, you can model a parametric pattern model.
Sine*Cosine Frames
In this grasshopper definition you can model a wavy like frame structure around a sphere. First we will extract the vertices of the sphere and then use a Sine*Cosine function to move them around.
Curved-Crease Origami
This thesis by Ting-Uei Lee explored the design of elastically-bent curved-crease origami by developing a set of curved-crease patterns with interaction between material elastic bending energy behaviours and origami developability constraints.
