orking in Grasshoper v0.9.00xx (I tried, 9.0010 and 9.0014)
If I try this code
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
System.Globalization.CultureInfo oldCI = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US");
Object objExcel;
objExcel = System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject("Excel.Application");
objExcel.Cells(2, 1).Value = "titleA";
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I see, the message
" Error: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Worksheets' (line 95) "
Line 95 is the last one < objExcel.Cells(2, 1).Value = "titleA"; >
I've also tried,
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application xlApp;xlApp = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application) System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetActiveObject("Excel.Application");
But GH C# says
Error: The type or namespace name 'Office' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?) (line 89)
What did I wrong??

the bubble diagram. This algorithm works by a set of attractive and repulsive forces (as in Equation 9) acting recursively on graph vertices, seeks a ‘relax’ situation for a graph, and reaches to a graph drawing. This tool is quite intuitive and shows in real-time bubble diagrams neatly according to the specified areas and the connectivity graph.
Equation 9
Attraction: 〖AF〗_ij=ka ∆x_ij for all linked (i,j)
Repulsion: 〖RF〗_ij=kr /x_ij for all (i,j)
The attraction/repulsion strength inputs are denoted as ka and kr
in the above equations. If some configuration is very messy, you need to have a high repulsion first to untangle it. I have not tried Angel's method but it is very similar to the method we have scripted for this component.
I hope this helps.

obably only using Rhino4, but three people who bought Rhino2, Rhino3 and Rhino4 respectively are three people using one version each.
We certainly don't know how many Grasshopper users there are. Grasshopper installers are not always downloaded via our website or -once downloaded- used multiple times (think class-rooms and company IT). We have no way of knowing whether someone who once downloaded Grasshopper is still using it. That being said, Grasshopper is downloaded ~100 times a day from our website and this number has been fairly constant since 2009 (though slightly on the increase, I'd say ~80 a day in early 2009). There are nearly 96,000 unique email addresses in the Grasshopper mailing list, more than 455,000 in the Rhino4 mailing list.
The size of this community (>17,000 registered users) is a much better indicator of user-base magnitude, but even here we have no idea how many people registered but are now no longer using GH as we do not collect use statistics (yet).

What I figured yesterday is that the increase in radiation because of the reflective facade for the 'worst' month is only about 2-3 kWh/m2 as your looking at a value of 80 without and 82-83 kWh/m2 with reflection.
So my assumption is that the glare factor will play a much bigger role instead of intensity of the sun, looking at comfortable levels. So I'm looking in this as well. It's very cool to play around with these plugins and see the outcome. I'll keep you guys posted.
@ Claudio, that was exactly my problem as well. I presented a direct sunlight hour analysis, to show the increase in direct sunlight hours because of the mirrored facade and at what times of the day the reflections occurred. But it is hard to asses if this is 'bad' or 'good'. The restaurant in question receives more or less 130 direct sunlight hours 'naturally' in the worst month and because of the reflection the result was 161 direct sunlight hours, but the client was like okay..... and is this a problem? So we decided to look at sun intensity but I didn't want to fall into the trap of in the end presenting kWh/m2 and having the same problem not knowing if this is 'comfortable' or 'annoying' etc. Good luck with your study, I'll post my findings
Thanks again guys…

I think i'm about 80% there. It may not be the most elegant procedure, but it appears to be working. I am having some slight problems.
1. I'm having trouble extracting the edge curve on one side of my mesh
a. I used a mesh plane intersection to trim my site mesh, and the resultant curve extends beyond the limit of my mesh
b. I identified the intersection point, but GH is not shattering on that intersection point. instead it happens at a point further down the polyline
2. I'm can't join my curves. If i bake them, they join into a closed curve.... GH join curves is not behaving. i've had some success joining two segments, but i can seem to get all 4 side wall curves to join.
if anybody could offer some advice, i'd be very appreciative. also, i'd like some recommendations for ways to streamline this definition. I'm sure that there are more creative ways to manage this data, and i'd love to about them. thanks - CSDG

use an attractor curve to adjust curves that are being lofted to create a "wavey" surface. I've attached a picture to show the end result. Right now i create all the curves and then loft them together to create a surface which could then have a rib definition applied to it, and it works, my problem is that this project is for a 80' section of wall with ribs that would be a few inches apart, so that is a ton of curves i have to change everytime i want to adjust the overall shape. So is it possible to have an attractor curve that instead of adjusting the spacing of shapes in plane with the curve, would create high points or low points perpendicular to the curve? Hopefully that makes some sense, i'm having trouble finding the words to explain it, the attached pictures should help.
Any advice on how to do this would be great. I hate being that guy but this project came up last minute and it seemed like something the Grasshopper help save a ton of time in as far as adjustments go.
Thanks,
Kyle

h kangaroo and have found one project that illustrates my idea exactly...
https://vimeo.com/88002087
So far my best attempt has been to use a gridded surface in which the lines of the grid are springs, with a rest length at 80% of their initial length. (call this grid A) This is to simulate as if the material has been stretched 120% of its resting dimensions.
I have been trying to anchor the springs to a secondary grid (Grid B, curves that will be deposited onto the material) at the points of intersection with grid A.
I am not sure if this is the best approach, maybe soapfilm would be better? although i require the boundary (grid B) to adapt also...
Any advice or attempts to explain how Taichi Kuma has done this in his video would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks…
A: Who created it? / Copyright?
B: Anyone have a larger resolution copy of this image (or a vector so I can do a large resize).
Long and short - I'm an artist and I'd like to make a quilt out of that image. I need a decent resolution copy of it so I can do a huge resize and get a 76" x 80" crop out of it. I've tried resizing it in Photoshop, but by the time it's large enough, the quality has dropped below what is usable for my needs.
Thanks in advance! I totally understand I'm relying on the kindness of strangers here. (Also if this is inappropriate to post - please delete. Thank you)

st for the quality of the mesh.
Actually, convergence is much more than simply having low residuals. You can have a wrong solution with very low residuals. Usually, it is a combined process of both run time information on residuals and having an idea or expectation of what the simulation results should be. Another way of assessing convergence is if the residual values have been stable (within a very small limit, e.g. 1E-5) for more than a certain number of iterations (e.g. 1000). We are planning to provide run-time residual plots in Butterfly, hopefully soon. These plots can help keeping an eye on the solution.
You could try as a test if you want to switch to a blend of first and second order (by swapping upwind with linearUpwind in the fvSchemes)
.
Concerning mesh quality there are a number of ways, some of which are a bit advanced for this post and for BF's current capabilities. The best way to start is by refining the background mesh (i.e. the blockMesh). You can do that by assigning more cells to the x, y and z directions in the blockMesh component. However, make sure you increase the max global cells. I would suggest you monitor the output of the blockMesh in order to know the total number of cells there. Your max global cells has to be higher than that for SHM to even work. I'd suggest 2x to start with. Ofc all that requires a bit of trial and error depending on the case at hand.
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,
Theodore.…
