Generating Isopotential Maps

The experiment investigates generative processes for Isopotential Maps. Considering a surface as input (it will be assumed as basic field) and a series of "n" attractors the GH definition will individuate a series of curves which describe the field of forces operating on the area. The definition, developed in cooperation with Andrea Graziano, allows to manipulate "n" attractors as a sort of electric charges. You can decide the charge's value (positive or negative) and eventually invert it during the process. Ispotential curves are extracted by the intersection between a series of planes and the surface emerged by the field influence. Here you can downolad the GH definition and a very simple Rhino file, to be used as first example: MLP_Isopotential lines creator.3dm MLP_Isopotential lines creator.ghx Here you can see and image that describe the result of the generative process.

    hi jissi,

    it would be nice, if you share the pict of your def.

    thanks in advance.

    Hi Mateo, I have a question...

    I have the section curves in the end of the definition, how can I make a surface with this curves???...

    @Jissi Choi, It would be great if you share de Def. Thanks a lot!
