nette for years.. but without the nice GUI. It also allows combining constraints solving to be part of the DAG.
What is parameterics? Or parametric associative as GC has been described. Can't remember. History or procedural modeling? Even constraints solving or rules based solving all use parameters. Is it generative or merely parametric? I guess the difference is a parametric door doe not generate other parameteric doors?
BIM has opened the door to a more data centric view and manipulation of the design model. To old skoolers a wall is a linear construct that can be abstracted into parameters... beginning and end points of wall in plan + height and thickness. But start adding other stuff and need to ineteroperate with others and things get problematic.
Pretty soon, all those abstractions (parametric or otherwise) need to be structured and you end up talking about schemas etc to control the format of the parameters using rules as checks or constraints..so that your parameters can interface with parameters from others without causing data quality issues. It all gets very database thinking like.
So, I would say parametrics as GH does it is more free form and ad hoc and at some point if it goes BIM, the parametrics will be need to be (re)structured..
BIM is dependent on IFC development which is not very fast. IFC4 is only beginning to think about parametrics and 'Design Transfer'.

In my opinion learning Grasshopper will be enough and there is no need to learn Python to use it successfully. Best to have a deep understanding of Grasshopper and what it can do then to try and learn too many things at once. It will help you in applying the principles to other code and not the other way round (ie. learning the concepts first and then going into grasshopper). The best way to learn the concepts is by applying and trying them in a tool like Grasshopper.
I absolutely recommend that you visit a Grasshopper workshop, as that will teach you a lot more than Youtube videos. If you cant visit a workshop, then I recommend the rese.arch video series on Grasshopper. They're really indepth and go from simple introduction to very advanced. You should ideally buy and complete all of them.
Also there is of course Dynamo and its integration with Revit and BIM, which is something to look at, although Grasshopper covers all of that as well, at least with the integration with ArchiCad. Autodesk products are more common around the world though.
Be aware that a lot of the power of Grasshopper is also in the plugins you can get for it, like Kangaroo (physics simulation), Ladybug&Honeybee (environmental analysis), Karamba (finite element analysis), Hoopsnake or Anemone (looping) and many, many more. You can find them at food4rhino.com.
Good luck!…
ules and provide suggestions. It comes with some goodies useful along with SYNTACTIC tools, such as Spectral Graph Drawing and Matrix Plots. Simple connectors are also provided for SYNTACTIC and SpiderWeb. This new toolkit is in some ways fundamentally different from the version you have been using so far. For more info please check my dissertation:

if you don't have the time to read this, check this one out:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/303944600_Spectral_Modelli...
If you want to try this version you need to install two libraries in your Grasshopper/Special Folders/Components Folder
* Math.NET (MathNet.Numerics.dll): http://www.mathdotnet.com/
* Configraphics_CS.dll (the library to be completed by me)
Please note that because this package uses Math.NET their licencing terms apply as well as those of mine. Please read the Read-Me panel in the file.
If you want to write a C#/VB snippet to do something in connection to this package we'd be happy to help you with that (as much as the schedules and other things allow us) and eventually involve you as a developer in the next versions.
Our vision for the next versions is to connect/integrate this package with SYNTACTIC and SpiderWeb.
I will replace some of the groups with better/newer modules in the coming days. Stay tuned.

Introduction to Grasshopper Videos by David Rutten.
Wondering how to get started with Grasshopper? Look no further. Spend an some time with the creator of Grasshopper, David Rutten, to learn the
sinergetici associati alla compresenza simultanea di differenti strumenti di analisi e digital design all'interno di un processo di progettazione in svolgimento. I partecipanti utilizzeranno Grasshopper (modellatore parametrico per Rhino): l'uso di questo editor grafico di algoritmi si integra alla perfezione con gli strumenti di modellazione di Rhinoceros 3D espandendo le possibilità di corstruire modelli parametrici altamente complessi. Per generare una complessità simile saranno utilizzati collegamenti live ai diversi programmi elencati di seguito: . Autodesk Ecotect Analysis via GECO . FEA software GSA via SSI Durante questi intensi 3 giorni, i partecipanti impareranno il workflow dei plug-ins con l'aiuto di esempi esplorando una panoramica dei differenti software, le possibilità di testare le performances di un progetto o l'uso di strumenti addizionali non legati ad un singolo sistema (es. accentuazione, formazione, reazione parametrica) [english text] The focus of the workshop is to integrate and correlate the synergistic effect associated with simultaneous presence of different digital design- and analysis tools in an ongoing design process. The main attention is set on easy to handle interface , which should be used at a early stage of conceptual design to respond to external and internal influences in a intelligent and sustainable way. Participants will use the software Grasshopper as a parametric modeling plug-in for Rhino. The usage of this graphical algorithm editor tightly integrated with Rhino's 3-D modeling tools open up the possibility to construct highly parametrical complex models. To generate this complexity we will use live linkages to several programs listed below: . Autodesk Ecotect Analysis via GECO . FEA software GSA via SSI In this 3 intense days, the participants should learn the workflow of the plug-ins with the help of examples and get an overview of the different software's, there possibilities for evaluating the performance of a design or the usage of additional tools to be not chained to a single system . (e.g. parametrical accentuation, parametrical formation, parametrical reaction) [.] Dettagli : Istruttori: Thomas Grabner & Ursula Frick from [uto]. lingua del corso: inglese (saranno disponibili tutor di supporto ma è richiesta una conoscenza di base della lingua unglese).

radiance parameters to get rid of blotching. To add another level of complexity to my problem, I am running simulations with a translucent material with the following properties: void trans testTrans
0
0
7 0.478 0.478 0.478 0.000 0.010 0.178 0.635
I have had no issues with the renderings when I use clear glazing, as seen on this image:
However the blotching-issue becomes very noticeable when I introduce translucent glazing into the scene:
For the two above cases I used the following parameters:
_av_ is set to 0
xScale is set to 2
_ab_ is set to 6
_dc_ is set to 0.5
_aa_ is set to 0.2
_ad_ is set to 2048
_st_ is set to 0.5
yScale is set to 2
_ps_ is set to 4
_ar_ is set to 64
_as_ is set to 2048
_ds_ is set to 0.25
_pt_ is set to 0.1
_dr_ is set to 1
_pj_ is set to 0.9
_dp_ is set to 256
_dt_ is set to 0.25
_lr_ is set to 6
_dj_ is set to 0.5
_lw_ is set to 0.01
I ran another test with increased Radiance parameters and got the following output:
with the following parameters:
_av_ is set to 0
xScale is set to 6
_ab_ is set to 6
_dc_ is set to 0.75
_aa_ is set to 0.1
_ad_ is set to 4096
_st_ is set to 0.15
yScale is set to 6
_ps_ is set to 2
_ar_ is set to 128
_as_ is set to 4096
_ds_ is set to 0.05
_pt_ is set to 0.05
_dr_ is set to 3
_pj_ is set to 0.9
_dp_ is set to 512
_dt_ is set to 0.15
_lr_ is set to 8
_dj_ is set to 0.7
_lw_ is set to 0.005
Although the second blotching case is much better than the first, it is still very bad for hours when the sun is lower in the sky. The above images are rendered for a clear sky at 18:00 in Germany in a West-facing room.
Sorry for the long post! Can someone help? Kind regards, Örn

mmon.sdk ,but i herad its used in rhino5.
or example: the book grasshopper primer second edition ,page 98
i dont know what is the "doc.absolutetolerance" and where i can find about it....i dont kow it should be a class or a fuction,i tried to search the rhino4. net sdk,i cant find it ....maybe its my searching problem.
but according to the grasshopper primer, i indeed know many kind of Variables,many functions,basic structure, loops, and conditions,and what is onutil.xxxx and rhutil.xxxx.but i found all this imformation is not helpful enough to me when reading the examples downloaded from many disscussions.when i found a new variable or new funcion,i dont know where i can find the introduction about them,such as the upper coding:"doc.absolutetolerance".i tried to use the auto complete such as
dim xxxx as oncurve
xxxx. to find the class oncurve's funtions and variables ,but its too uneffcient.
-----------------------------------------------
And,i dont know the difference between the components vb script and dotnet vb script....
because i found when i type onutil. the auto complete has noting appear...and the variables declaring is not the same. in vb script dim xxxx as curve but in dotnet vb script its dim xxxx as oncurve,which is the same as the grasshopper primer teached me...but i guess.... the vb script component is just like the rhinoscript(not the same),and the dotnet vb script is more powerful than it. am i right?
------------------------------------------------
at last i dont know these.
Imports System Imports System.IO Imports System.Xml Imports System.Data Imports System.Drawing Imports System.Reflection Imports System.Collections Imports System.Windows.Forms Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic Imports System.Collections.Generic Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
when i search google about them,the introduction about them is too professinal for me to understand......i just want to know what i can do by using them ...
-------------------------
sorry for disturbing you so much!!!
best regards!

nside the zone. I would move your comfort evaluation surface to be 1 meter off the ground in order to be representative of typical human height.
Also, you did not intersect the ground with the rest of the zone geometry, resulting in an incorrect energy simulation. After intersection, you also get one surface of the ground zone that is not inside any buildings. I fixed these two things in the attached file ad it works:
I would also recommend breaking the top surface of the ground up into sub-surfaces so that you can capture the variation in ground surface temperature that happens across the outdoors. Second, I would recommend putting some windows on your buildings as the exterior surface temperature of windows can be very different than that of opaque surfaces. Finally, you should keep in mind that the outdoor maps are assuming a very basic outdoor wind profile by default and, to accurately understand outdoor comfort, you really should be incorporating wind patterns after running a CFD. This discussion has some information about importing CFD from other programs to GH:
