Termite Swarming Structure

Using Panagiotis' millipede grasshopper plug-in to generate load density mesh for attractors of the termites(fishes).
Principle of movement: Termite eat out blue part of the mesh(less load baring)without touching the red part.

Trajectories are generated and one component is there re-evaluate the previous mesh afterwards.
Optimization are available by implementing galapagos trying to make the termite as efficiency as possible.....

    excellent 

  • Luis Fraguada

    Nice application!  Is the swarm system your own doing or are you using an add-on? 

  • Suqi

    That is my own.
  • RWNB

    impressive!

  • Hrvoje Petrovic

    Impressive indeed...

  • Pieter Segeren

    Whoa, like!

  • Bin Feng

    impressive!

    Hey Suqi, great work, thanks for sharing!

    One question though cause it's really weird: the "3d mesh results" component i get is missing the third input - the one where you toggle the color on/off. The whole def is working great but i can't see the color visualisation on the slabs. Any ideas why this is happening?

    i made it in Rhino 4. and i think Panagiotis had updated the Millepede plugin for many times. So please find the most updated version.
