Grasshopper

algorithmic modeling for Rhino

Hello, I have followed the good old tutorial on how to build a 'parametric truss'.  Now I want to take it further and duplicate the truss, so it forms a network of trusses.  I have successfully duplicated them in a LINEAR way, but would like to duplicate them in 360 degrees, kind of like growing a flower.. 


I have attached my .ghx file here.


In short, I just want to learn how to duplicate the truss so that the network grows like a flower, like  offsetting a circle with a bigger radius each time. 

 

many thanks!

Without investigating into your definition, my gut answer is that you could try to define a series of circle (by series of radius, circle). And divide the circles into points which you will shift them to apply the triangulations. You know, connecting the points and the shifted points...

Of course you could use closed curve or similar, then you will want to offset them outward.
