ore simplest way, for example i need to declare min distance (minDist) like huge number to avoid overlapping values. may be find way do not use second loop in script at all . In the neoarchaic's script has line 99 (j = pts.ClosestIndex(pt)) but i have no idea how to do it in C#.
2. In a file i prepared GH+Hoopsnake and GH+Anemone solution for this script . Can i use the same principle in C# (shipt list with wrap values )? This solution I need for studying list operations in C#.
Thank you for helping .
ps..My script:
int num = x.Count; double minDist,dist; int minI = 0; int i = 0;
Point3d pt; List<Point3d> z = new List<Point3d>();
while (i < num) { i++; z.Add(x[minI]); pt = x[minI]; minDist = 1000000000000; x.RemoveAt(minI);
for (int n = 0; n < x.Count; n++){
dist = x[n].DistanceTo(pt);
if ( dist < minDist) { minI = n; minDist = dist; } } } A = z;
…
13;2} ... 20.{13;12}
21. {21;0}22. {21;1}23. {21;2} ... 41. {21;20}
42. {34;0}43. {34;1}44. {34;2} ... 75. {34;33}
76. {55;0}77. {55;1} ... ....
I want to grab the first 8 [0-7], the next 13[8-20], the next 21[21-42] etc
so i have the (known fibonacci seq) list of numbers on the left here:
C S
8 0
13 8
21 21
34 42
55 76
89 131
144 220
233 364
and i need the list on the right, so that i can select items using a Series (N=1 and S and C from the list above) and a List Item component.
the simple question is:
is there a component that can take a list and accumulate it in this way that I need?
if not, is there anyone that can point me to a simple relevant VB example so i could easily adapt it?
many thanks,
gotjosh…
edit 29/04/14 - Here is a new collection of more than 80 example files, organized by category:
KangarooExamples.zip
This zip is the most up to date collection of examples at the moment, and collects t
ers and researchers, programmers and artists, professionals and academics who come together for 4 days of intense collaboration, development, and design.
The sg2012 Workshop will be organised around Clusters. Clusters are hubs of expertise. They comprise of people, knowledge, tools, materials and machines. The Clusters provide a focus for workshop participants working together within a common framework.
Clusters provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, processes and techniques and act as a catalyst for design resolution. The Workshop is made up of ten Clusters that respond in diverse ways to the sg2012 Challenge Material Intensities.
Applicants to the sg2012 Workshop will select their preferred cluster from the following:
Beyond Mechanics
Micro Synergetics
Composite Territories
Ceramics 2.0
Material Conflicts
Transgranular Perspiration
Reactive Acoustic Environments
Form Follows Flow
Bioresponsive Building Envelopes
Gridshell Digital Tectonics
More information about the Workshop and Clusters can be found here:

The application process will close on January 15th, 2012.
Full Fee $1500
Reduced Fee $750
Scholarship Fee $350
Fees include attendance to both the workshop and conference from March 19th-24th.
Reduced Fee and Scholarships are available only for Academics, Students and Young Practitioners, and are awarded during a competitive peer review process.
sg2012 takes place from 19-24 March 2012 at EMPAC (http://empac.rpi.edu/) and is hosted by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, upstate New York USA. The Workshop and Conference will be a gathering of the global community of innovators and pioneers in the fields of architecture, design and engineering.
The event will be in two parts: a four day Workshop 19-22 March, and a public conference beginning with Talkshop 23 March, followed by a Symposium 24 March. The event follows the format of the highly successful preceding events sg2010 Barcelona and sg2011 Copenhagen.
sg2012 Challenge Material Intensities
Simulation, Energy, Environment
Imagine the design space of architecture was no longer at the scale of rooms, walls and atria, but that of cells, grains and vapour droplets. Rather than the flow of people, services, or construction schedules, the focus becomes the flow of light, vapour, molecular vibrations and growth schedules: design from the inside out.
The sg2012 challenge, Material Intensities, is intended to dissolve our notion of the built environment as inert constructions enclosing physically sealed spaces. Spaces and boundaries are abundant with vibration, fluctuating intensities, shifting gradients and flows. The materials that define them are in a continual state of becoming: a dance of energy and information. Material potential is defined by multiple properties: acoustical, chemical, electrical, environmental, magnetic, manufacturing, mechanical, optical, radiological, sensorial, and thermal. The challenge for sg2012 Material Intensities is to consider material economy when creating environments, micro-climates and contexts congenial for social interaction, activities and organisation. This challenge calls for design innovation and dialogue between disciplines and responsibilities. sg2010 Working Prototypes strove to emancipate digital design from the hard drive by moving from the virtual to the actual in wrestling with the tangible world of physical fabrication. sg2011 Building the Invisible focused on informing digital design with real world data. sg2012 Material Intensities strives to energise our digital prototypes and infuse them with material behaviour. They have the potential to become rich simulations informed by the material dynamics, chemical composition, energy flows, force fields and environmental conditions that feed back into the design process.

ion into the world of Parametric Design using these two sofwares. Grasshopper is a graphical program language through which one can model complex geometric forms. It builds generative algorithms were outputs to these forms are tied to the inputs of subsequent components. Rhino is an advanced NURBS modeler through which one does precision modelling, project workflow and organization. Grasshopper utilizes Rhino 3-D as a modeling platform to develop parametrically controlled models with real time geometric manipulation. These two programs are a powerful combination where Grasshopper parametrically defines the model logics to explore variations and optimized solutions while Rhino models and visualizes it. These two programs are essential for architects, designers, engineers, professionals, and students interested in exploring professionally the world of parametric design."This workshop will be held in Amman/Jordan between the 15th and 22nd of January 2016 from 5pm to 10pm …
his on the programming forum I'm guessing you're looking for a VB or C# approach to this?
Here are two algorithms (pseudo code, very similar) which will simulate a droplet of water on a surface (ignoring momentum, surface tension, surface angle, collisions with other drops etc.)
Algorithm one, easy implementation, slows down on horizontalish areas:
1) Pick a point somewhere on the surface. How you get to this level is your problem.
2) Lower the point by a certain fixed amount along the z-axis. Say, 0.1 units.
3) Project the lowered point back onto the BRep using a ClosestPoint function.
4) If the newly projected point is very similar to the input point, abort, otherwise, repeat step 2.
Algorithm two, more difficult, better control over step size:
1) Pick a point somewhere on the surface. How you get to this level is your problem.
2) Find the normal vector at this point.
3) If the normal vector is (nearly) straight up, abort.
4) Find the CrossProduct between the normal vector and the straight-up vector.
5) Rotate the normal vector 90 degrees around this cross-product.
6) Scale the rotated vector so it becomes the length of your sampling accuracy.
7) Move the point along the vector and pull it back onto the surface (should be a short distance if your step-size is small)

google's data (please correct if I'm wrong):
"SRTM1 data is sampled at one arcsecond (about 30 meters) and SRTM3 data is sampled at three arcseconds (about 90 meters). The higher resolution SRTM1 data is available for most of the US and the lower res SRTM3 data is available for most of the world."
The 3x3 stitching definition above is done in Rhino 4 but it doesn't actually "stitch together" or merge the surfaces into one. I had to do it manually in Rhino with the merge surfaces command. Which I think does a better job than grasshopper.
Also I think the calculations within it (distance of one degree change in lat/lng) won't be accurate enough (or high enough in resolution) even though they are correct so I cannot guarantee the 3x3 pieces are perfectly neighbouring sets of data (they might contain very very tiny strips of overlapped/missed topography data). However this error is really insignificant next to the limited resolution of the generated topography so it is neglectable if you're not a perfectionist like me.
Edit: For bigger areas Elk is much easier, but for smaller areas where you want to specify the area size Xiaoming's component is more convenient I think.…
s set up. All the goals in Kangaroo have indices identifying which of the points in the system they act on.
Assigning these indices automatically and still allowing inputs to change during simulation requires some tricks to work around the acyclic directed nature of Grasshopper.
In remeshing the indexing and even number of points changes which greatly complicates things if you want to also have goals assigned to certain edges/points.
Last time I spent serious time on this though was before the K2 library, so maybe time to revisit soon. I think it would probably over complicate things trying to accommodate this remeshing directly within the main Kangaroo solver component, but there could be a dedicated membranes tool (though I know you also want me to prioritize documenting the existing tools!).
Stepping back for a moment though - it is usually possible to separate the remeshing and relaxation into separate steps. Membrane relaxation generally needs well shaped triangles (no angles over 90), and remeshing can give you this. Of course the triangles change shape during relaxation, but if the unrelaxed geometry is not too dramatically different from the end result, and you use tangential smoothing to keep vertices from drifting, they can stay well shaped throughout. For bigger changes in geometry you could also remesh-relax-remesh-relax.…

nds except only using CreateHBSrfs which can be unstable for me with some geometry (GH crashes).
If you want proof of the rotation not taking place using MSH2RAD, please look in the Daysim*.rad file that gets created when performing a Daysim simulation.
See example below. The same polygon is processed via the CreateHBSrs component and via the MSH2RAD component. The polygon gets rotated 90 degrees using CreateHBSrs but unfortunately not with MSH2RAD:
