This plugin is developed by GeometryGym so please get in touch with them. Also, this forum is no longer maintained, so please post questions in the Rhino Forums.

Hey, 

I'm trying to export karamba model to SAP but am aving some difficulties and have this error. 

I've installed the ggkaramba from package manager. tried with all of them(karamba, ggSAP, ggkaramba) in older version still doesn't work. would much appreciate the help. 

I can't see the ggSAP in karamba see below.

But it's visible in gg plugin,

Dear all, please use the McNeel Forum (see https://discourse.mcneel.com/c/grasshopper/karamba3d) to post your questions and not the comment wall.

Hello, I am creating a parametric model of shell truss for evolutionary optimization. When applying Mesh Brep component on my model, the resulting mesh gets weirdly distorted and broken around the edges. Do you know what might be causing this issue? Here is my GH definition:5.Issue.gh

another questions about the initial strain load,  from the cases provide, for example,the beam with initial strain load  do not have shear force and bending monent. in my understand , pure axis force only  is much more safe then  shear force, bending moment, and axis force together(hope my understand is right)

not sure my understanding is right:  this initial load is the results of axis-force we want it inside and a load affect.

my question is, 1. in reality projects  where does this load come from? it is the results of load we want. then how to add this on?

2. if we can use initial strain load  to replace other loads, then how to transfer other loads with initial load. for example  the beam under gravity become an arch, but we want a pure axis force arch, no shear force,  then how to transfer gravity G=10 equals  initial strain load?

3 is there any case of projects use initial strain load help me understand?

hi, clements, thank you very much for your answer.

I learn this case about mesh load  and have 3 questions

1. there are meshs and beam, but the mesh do not have material , only have load,  what is that?

2. the mesh is not attached to beam, how to understand it?

in my understand the case is , for examble, mesh is floor , have dead load or live load, then under floor is attached beam,  this floor and beam should have intersect part, then the load will transfer to the beam.   but here, they are seperate.

3, the mesh load is z-direction, but it turns a x-direction affect on beam, why

pls help,  i know you help alot already

keep safe from virus  hope vienna is ok

Hi, Jiaxing,
the eigenmodes and eigenvalues result from the solution of the eigenvalue problem (see e.g. here) of the stiffnessmatrix S. The eigenmodes show in ascending order those deformation modes which the structure can take on most easily. The eigenvalues are the ratio between the internal forces and the corresponding eigenmode displacements.
The eigenvalues and eigenshapes as calculated in Karamba3D have nothing to do with stability or vibrations. For the buckling modes one has to solve the general eigenvalue problem which involves the stiffness matrix and the geometric stiffness matrix. For the vibtration modes it's the general eigenvalue problem involving the resultant stiffness and mass matrix.

hi, clements,  i read karamba manual again,  during that, the eigenmode and eigenvalues still troubles me to understand,  it seems to test vabration and get eigenvalues by eigenmode. 

what is the funcion of eigenmode, and what does the eigenvalue mean?

stability?  do the eigenvalues has standard to show whether it is safe or not?

sorry,  it seems a basic structure knowledges,

right sorry for that, and thanks

Hi, I am moving all discussion to the user problems page as the parallel discussion is cumbersome. https://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/karamba3d/forum/topics/karamba-...
