"About Weaverbird, as you read in Kangaroo's manual (sort of...), it becomes useful "to make sheet material..." and "Weaverbird has some very useful components for extracting the edges of meshes as curves. UTO's mesh tools…"

Michael Makris replied to Paolo Bartoli's discussion Funicular structures #2 in the group Kangaroo

"So I think I've solved it. I think the big problem you're having is about the points. First, make sure you've selected all of them in your point component. But most importantly, the points you've laid out in Rhino don't all…"

"Micheal, you need to install Weaverbird plugin into Grasshopper to have "wbVertices" and "wbEdges", download is here: http://www.giuliopiacentino.com/weaverbird/ I must admit that I don't (yet) know what exactly…"

"Hey so I can't get Catenary2.ghx to open, it seems because you have the mesh pre-assigneed. Can you undo that so "mesh" turns orange and then resend this to me? Also, where do "wbVertices" and "wbEdges" come from?…"

"Thanks Michael, I just updated the definition. It works with 50 mill sec. What I don't exactly understand now is where are the anchor points are supposed to be: inside the mesh, with the same z axis value. That's how I placed them,…"

Funicular structures #2

Again, I think I'm getting closer to the solution...This definition should work, isn't it? But I see no action, nothing happens... what am I still missing? ìSee More

"Starting to learn Kangaroo on my own, I've downloaded your definition for the Catenary. Opened the definition, seems to me I'm missing the force input for the UForce to make it work: is it an integer value of a vector? "

"I'm trying to reproduce the Funicular structure without success, I can't even get to Carolina's step. My problem is I can't get both the UForce and Springs blocks connected to Kangaroo engine. Seems like one link exclude the…"

Molten glass simulation ?

I would like to simulate the shape that is supposed to come out of a "glass mould" that I have prototyped with wood and aluminum bended sheets (see attached image).The prototype is build to experiment different shapes with Polystirene / acrilic glass. PS or AG are placed in the oven over the "glass mould" to achieve the desidered shape.Since I'd like to explore different configurations in the "glass moulding", I would like to understand if there's a way to simulate the softening of the glass /…See More
