Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino


Hi all,

I would like to make similar structure (especially the last image)

Can anyone advise the process or the gh script definition of this kind of "flow line" structure?

cheers:))

anyone knows?

I'd start with setting up fields and tracing field lines. But that not be how the original was made.

Hi David,

Which plugin shall I use to generate this kind of flowline structure? Thanks

cheers,

Angela

I also don't know how it is done, because there is almost 3 types of flowline. But have you some references about this work ? It shoud also be interesting knowing what you intend to do, what sort of volume/surface, .... The important thing is lines. Because tubes are just pipes and could easily done in Rhino or Grasshopper. 

I think it cold be done if curves followed some offset surface of a surface, with a certain amount of randomness.  You could look at what I did here

hi Laurent,

The idea for me to do this diagram as I would like use the flowlines/ streamlines to flow around the surface and create a "flowline" structure. If you have any ideas please let me know. Thanks:)

karamba offers two utility components which integrate a directional field you define yourself on a mesh (resp. integrate the isolines of a scalar field), so the lines will always lie 100% on the mesh. you can take those, join and simplify them, so you would get a bit of randomness.

best,

Rob

karamba seems to have restrictions for the trial version

please help. Thank you!

Hello,

First of all, can you post some reference for these images.

I have done something similar with Processing many years ago.

You can use nudibranch to achieve something close to the pictures (components srf/mesh climber, point hicking, walkers ect) look at the example files.

Best,
