Karamba3D is an interactive, parametric finite element program. It lets you analyze the response of 3-dimensional beam and shell structures under arbitrary loads.

Karamba3D is being developed by Clemens Preisinger in cooperation with Bollinger und Grohmann ZTGmbH in Vienna.

I have updated to Rhino 6.14.19118.. Before this i used karamba3d 1.2.2 in a early version of rhino6. My question is if it is possible to update my student license from Karamba3d 1.2.2 to 1.3.1? the main reason for this is because i want to check KarambaIDEA plugin and it is only available for Karamba 1.3.1

Thank you in advance!

Hi Wilinton, could you please open a new discussion for the topic? There it would be easier to communicate.
You definition is quite large and complex. For debugging try the divide and conquer method: Split up the definition into meaningful parts and test the parts individually.

Best,

Clemens

Hi all. I am modeling a metal cover, but I have designed it separately (beams and belts separately); I've done that because I designed all the coverage together and then I designed it in the sap or etabs program and compared the results and they were very different (I did not have this design ordered, but I did it in a quick way to check, so I did not I upload said file). 

My question is how can I get equal results in both grasshopper (karamba) and in Sap or Etabs; what conditions should I take into account to model the entire coverage and what should be considered in the beam-belt nodes (intersection node)?.
IMetal%20Coverage.gh upload my file in grasshopper where I design beam and strap separately, but the visualization is of all coverage. I hope you can help me. Thank you.

Hello, 

I am working on branching column fabric formwork system and I have 2 doubts:

1) how can I take the kangaroo solid concrete element to karamba analysis for stress

2) how can I module the branching column line element path in karamba according to the given load

My aim is to optimise the fabric formed vertical system in-terms of reducing the stress and volume and form-finding of this system to the given load and support conditions

Hi all Is it possible to create other cross sections? And if that is possible, how can I do that ?, some reference (book, chapter, ....) Thank you

Could it be a render scale / visualization issue? @Arthur

Comment by Marco Pellegrino on December 12, 2018 at 12:47pm
Arthur. It shouldn’t have that big difference. Could you share your file? Have you check the global reaction ? Are they the same?
