oxes in the most efficient way within boundaries of object and follow the following constraints. The Goal: To fit 125 boxes in the most efficient way inside the total area. Starting Variables: (1) 40% of the Boxes need to be between 60 and 85MSQ. (2) 40% of the boxes need to be between 86 and 110MSQ.
(3) 20% of the boxes need to be between 111 and 125mSQ. The breakdown doesn’t have to be exact to give the script some flexibility. Meaning you can have 41% +39% +20% = 100%.
Constraints:
1. A total MAXIMUM area of approximately 1600M per layer.
2. A maximum of 8 layers for a total of 12,800M per layer. Optimization can make as little or as many as 8 layers vertical to accommodate all boxes. So if script can achieve with 3 levels great. If needed all 8 levels, that's fine too. However, pay attention to next constraint (#3).
3. Approximately 15% of that space on each layer is off limits. (internal area) (blue area in example script) and the shape of the boundary cannot be modified to accommodate box design resulting in jagged lines for the internal area.
4. All generated squares/rectangles must have at least 3m touching an outside border (The Green lines).
5. All boxes must also be touching minimum 1M of border of the blue line.
6. If the boxes generated go outside the green boundary, they must be fillet to maintain the straight lines of the green boundaries.
7. Get as many of the boxes as possible a view towards the dots.
Could any one provide me a method or a way to start, if there are any useful links, please share with me. Thank you!…

Our pavilion presents itself as a kind of beach screen for Volga riverbank. An aesthetic of the object, which consist of yellow “stars”, is simultaneously due to the features of the tensegrity construction and to the representation of Samara as a city of space industry.
The pavilion is formed by 128 crosses made of 9 mm plywood. Each cross has its individual form. They are connected only by stretched vertical steel cables. We wanted to make manually assembled object, which was elaborated using parametric design techniques. All plywood elements were prefabricated with CNC machine, including a mounting frame for cables assembling. This allowed us to assemble a compound parametric tensegrity construction with high accuracy and just as it was designed.…
ir surroundings. Our built environment continues to evolve, into an interconnected hyperspace where architecture can be fluid, flexible and vivid. In 2017, AA Athens Visiting School, will address architectural themes involving active engagement and participatory design through prototypes that are characterized by action.
Action-designed structures enabled by technology today, begin to timidly move beyond the utopian proposals of the 20th century’s manifestos and hold a place in the world of realized designs. The AA Athens Visiting School incorporates in the design process, materials and scientific devices as vital parts of the end-creations. The research aims at bringing closer the user with the built environment via space animation and animate and in its’ methodology, it rethinks habits of designing, building and experiencing space through materiality. In “SYMMETRY SENTIENCE”, materiality and form are considered as a “unified whole”. The programme will investigate how membranes can reshape our architectural understanding by bringing curvature and translucency. The design teams will focus on the flexible nature of tensile fabric that can be energized by motion and real-time reaction to various parameters. In this world of “living” structures and interactive formations, the design language includes Processing, Arduino, Rhino Modelling, and Grasshopper. The architecture programme, integrates manufacturing techniques that enable the design teams to actively experience the aspect of fabrication in 1:1 scale. A set of lectures and tutorials by experts from internationally renowned academics and practitioners, from the Architectural Association, Zaha Hadid Architects and others, form the theoretical background based on aspects of computational space, machinic control as well as responsive and kinetic design.
Eligibility
The workshop is open to architecture and design students and professionals worldwide.
Accreditation
Participants receive the AA Visiting School Certificate with the completion of the Programme.

e a critical environment for speculation on the possible transformations of the contemporary human body.
The workshop focuses on the research of geometrical explorations, aesthetic behavior of generative patterns and material performance through medium between computational design, digital fabrication and traditional sartorial techniques in haute couture fashion.
By integrating Design, Fashion and Architecture, the relationship between digital patterns and the human body will be crucial in order to adopt a contemporary language and translate it to a design that is both functional and physically appealing.
In Biology, tissues are organizations of similar cells that are composed of organs and living organisms. Due to the specific qualities of singles cells, some peculiar functions of the tissue emerge; conditioning its effectiveness and determining its’ contribution to the life of the organism. The same biological principles can be applied to any design: when the designer explores these particular parametric strategies, it is important to work with a tool that provides efficient feedback and allows one to easily introduce a wide range of variations leading to significant qualities for a design evolutionary process.
The workshop aims to produce full human scale 1:1 prototype wearable garments, in which will be exhibited during Milan Design Week in April 2017 at SBODIO32 Exhibition.
Dates: 18th April - 23rd March 2017 Tutors and Professors: ALESSANDRO ZOMPARELLI Designer and co-founder of MHOX STUDIO 3D Modelling for Product Design Professor at Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna Member of Co-de-iT Developer of Tissue, plugin for computational design in Blender FRANCESCO ANTICI Fashion Designer and Director of ARCHilista ALESSANDRO TURCI Professor of Fashion Publishing at Brera Academy and IED Milano.

adiation results, specially when comparing the results from LB with those of HB.
Issue 1: Results so different.
In the attached file upper part to the right of the canvas you see both definitions (LB and HB). The images obtained show results so different that i can't find a logic explanation (2.46 vs 41 kWh/m2 for the same period of time). I believe that LB are in the OK range. HB are to high for just 5 hrs of calculation. I don't believe the material definition are making such a big difference (though i tried to have them similar).
Issue 2: Can't get annual grid based calculations plotted.
In the attached, right side at the bottom. I get the calculation, but after connecting the results to the HB_readAllTheDSHourlyResults it takes ages to calculate and at the end rhino crashes. Can be that this is a memory problem? Or there is a way to make this work (total annual radiation for GridBased simulation)? For now i disabled the component, but i just wonder ...
Words of wisdom for both issues will be appreciated.
Thanks,

I don't really have any knowledge in CFD simulation and only watched the tutorials and managed to get the sample files to work. So this time, I replaced the starting geometry my building which is a curve building, I wonder if that is the issue that caused this problem. Can anyone enlighten me on the issue?
