algorithmic modeling for Rhino

parametric Solver

Hi all,
i've got a problem, i have got a free-form area, which I am trying to converge to a circular surface in an optimal way.

My approach is as follows:

-   on the area planes are generated with the surface normal
-   with rotate plane it is possible that a solver can influence the rotation angles of the area
-   by minimization of the error square of the distances between the working face and the rotating face it is possible that the solver can calculate the optimal position, but also influence the distance to the intended area.

At the moment I am approaching the optimal position with Galapagos. My problem is though, that I am trying to adapt a list of n points parametrical to the area.
I hope someone can help, thanks already..

Thomas

Hi Tom,

thanks for your reply

You know, I figured it was something like that.

I would like to adapt the circle to arbitrary surface.

I think, the best solution is a good algorithm...

I have tried out your tool "fit with projecting ", with the result that he aligns only a straight line with a circular area (fig.jpg)

I would like to treat a biaxial surface with milling. If the direction of milling tool is on the surface-normal (blue cylinder), the surface is damaged. The Solver calculates in dependence of the height and both angles of rotation around the axes the optimal position of the milling tool (red cylinder).
