Element offsets

by Rasmus Holst

Nov 30, 2012

Hi.

If i we want to calculate on multiple layers, is there then a way of using the node/centreline geometry and then offset beam elements from these? Imagine a long one curve you would like to have two elements one above the curve and one below? 

Would you have to model these to offset centrelines and then connect them with a small element in between or can you use the "Eccentricity on Beam" component? I am not really sure what it does and I can't seem to figure it out from the manual. 

Thanks Rasmus

    Thanks Clemens.
    Maybe I can ask one last thing or maybe it is more of a request. When using the eccentricity component or the orientate component, the datatree structure is flattened to a list? Is it not possible to keep the initial tree structure?

      Okay I was a bit quick in saying last question :).
      Does it have any impact on the calculations that when offsetting straight elements along a bend curve, there will be an increasing gap between the elements the further they are offset?

      I would like to show a sketch of what I mean, but I can't upload this in a reply here, but I can email it, if you want?

      Thanks.

        Hey, czytając o wszystkich skomplikowanych modelach i offsetach w oprogramowaniu, pomyślałem sobie, że czasem najlepiej oderwać się od takich technicznych problemów i zrobić coś dla czystej przyjemności. Wtedy trafiłem na https://chickensroads.com.pl/, traktując to jako kasyno online dla graczy z Polska. Na początku kilka rund w slotach skończyło się drobnymi porażkami, ale później zaryzykowałem większą stawkę i jeden większy wygrany całkowicie poprawił humor. Teraz gram spokojniej i takie podejście naprawdę pozwala się zrelaksować i cieszyć emocjami przy rozrywce.
