s for architectural design, has been heralded as the new paradigm in architecture for the last decade. Digital design techniques coupled with rapid prototyping have permeated architectural education and practice at all levels. But, besides the endless rhetoric and baseless forms, what can these methods actually contribute to the field? What is the scope of their use?
This workshop seeks to answer these questions by investigating surfaces, surface mathematics and manipulations, and using this investigation to introduce students to the issues of design and fabrication of artifacts.
The workshop will thus introduce participants to the basic concepts for design utilizing scripting techniques, through the exploration of the Python language for Rhinoceros. Together with the study of syntax, data types and scripting techniques the focus will be put on the understanding of the digital tools in relation with the common practice and the ways to approach problems a designer might encounter while using them.
Examples of a previous similiar workshop can be found here

ing the maps to the broader community.
At the moment, there are just a few known issues left that I have to fix for complex geometric cases but they should run smoothly for most energy models that you generate with Honeybee. Within the next month, I will be clearing up these last issues and, by the end of the month, there will be an updated youtube tutorial playlist on the comfort tools and how to use them.
In the meantime, there's an updated example file (http://hydrashare.github.io/hydra/viewer?owner=chriswmackey&fork=hydra_2&id=Indoor_Microclimate_Map) and I wanted to get you all excited with some images and animations coming out of the design part of my thesis. I also wanted to post some documentation of all of the previous research that has made these climate maps possible and give out some much deserved thanks. To begin, this image gives you a sense of how the thermal maps are made by integrating several streams of data for EnergyPlus:
(https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz2PwDvkjovJaTMtWDRHMExvLUk/view?usp=sharing)
To get you excited, this youtube playlist has a whole bunch of time-lapse thermal animations that a lot of you should enjoy:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLruLh1AdY-Sj3ehUTSfKa1IHPSiuJU52A
To give a brief summary of what you are looking at in the playlist, there are two proposed designs for completely passive co-habitation spaces in New York and Los Angeles.
These diagrams explain the Los Angeles design:
(https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz2PwDvkjovJM0JkM0tLZ1kxUmc/view?usp=sharing)
And this video gives you and idea of how it thermally performs:
These diagrams explain the New York design:
(https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz2PwDvkjovJS1BZVVZiTWF4MXM/view?usp=sharing)
And this video shows you the thermal performance:
Now to credit all of the awesome people that have made the creation of these thermal maps possible:
1) As any HB user knows, the open source engines and libraries under the hood of HB are EnergyPlus and OpenStudio and the incredible thermal richness of these maps would not have been possible without these DoE teams creating such a robust modeler so a big credit is definitely due to them.
2) Many of the initial ideas for these thermal maps come from an MIT Masters thesis that was completed a few years ago by Amanda Webb called "cMap". Even though these cMaps were only taking into account surface temperature from E+, it was the viewing of her radiant temperature maps that initially touched-off the series of events that led to my thesis so a great credit is due to her. You can find her thesis here (http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/72870).
3) Since the thesis of A. Webb, there were two key developments that made the high resolution of the current maps believable as a good approximation of the actual thermal environment of a building. The first is a PhD thesis by Alejandra Menchaca (also conducted here at MIT) that developed a computationally fast way of estimating sub-zone air temperature stratification. The method, which works simply by weighing the heat gain in a room against the incoming airflow was validated by many CFD simulations over the course of Alejandra's thesis. You can find here final thesis document here (http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/74907).
4) The other main development since the A. Webb thesis that made the radiant map much more accurate is a fast means of estimating the radiant temperature increase felt by an occupant sitting in the sun. This method was developed by some awesome scientists at the UC Berkeley Center for the Built Environment (CBE) Including Tyler Hoyt, who has been particularly helpful to me by supporting the CBE's Github page. The original paper on this fast means of estimating the solar temperature delta can be found here (http://escholarship.org/uc/item/89m1h2dg) although they should have an official publication in a journal soon.
5) The ASHRAE comfort models under the hood of LB+HB all are derived from the javascript of the CBE comfort tool (http://smap.cbe.berkeley.edu/comforttool). A huge chunk of credit definitely goes to this group and I encourage any other researchers who are getting deep into comfort to check the code resources on their github page (https://github.com/CenterForTheBuiltEnvironment/comfort_tool).
6) And, last but not least, a huge share of credit is due to Mostapha and all members of the LB+HB community. It is because of resources and help that Mostapha initially gave me that I learned how to code in the first place and the knowledge of a community that would use the things that I developed was, by fa,r the biggest motivation throughout this thesis and all of my LB efforts.

For a simplified version of the lost data issue use the modified def attached.
Note:
1. In this case GH stored some data (3 out of 5 nurbs). Notice that the internalized info is dimmed (but "null" is the final output).
2. Image sampler suffers as well - here using a recent photo of me (+ my cat) as a test ("save in file = on" it doesn't work in pretty much all the cases).
If the sampler could work you should see this:
3. Imagine storing captured images in various directories and creating a GH def using some images from, say, directory "capture screens 17".
In some occasions Image sampler stores correctly the image file name ... but mess things as regards the donor directory:
Here's a typical example with image files stored and directory name "replaced":
…
grid size 3 = 2.7 mins
grid size 2 = ??? memory peaks and rhino freezes.
However now that I have switch the unit of the rhino file to feet,
now grid size 3 = 18 mins.
which makes i suppose since the analysis will have to work with smaller tolerance.
The below img is what i got after 18 mins. I think also the fact that I have joined the individual units with solid union also make it longer maybe? you can see the mesh triangulation not only around the corners of masses but also inbetween different units (if you look at the top level you will see)
oh, and I also have very little disk space left.
I would like to share the file but right its a big mess and has a lot of stuff that is unrelated to this particular memory issue, like revit interoperability and urban modelling. and the definition is set up so that it needs to have an excel file that feeds what you see on the lower left corner, wing mass scales. In order to compare design studies I am animating the index of list component that feeds the different scale of the wings and the width of the floor plates you see. you can see it in my video here. I will try to clean it up a bit when I get a chance, but it seems like grid size 3 might work as a starting point.
when I get around to extract values from the mesh vertices and actually apply different facade designs driven from the parameters, I would know better what grid size might be necessary.
…
ld see were the set of basic tutorials. I've run through a few other folk's video tutorials also.
The test case I chose, I picked because it is a super simplification of an actual space I'm trying to model (a large school sports complex - see below). Ive modelled it as a closed volume, with a few solid objects inside it, and it is a much less box-shaped space, with a ceiling that is not flat, and a significant lattice of acoustic panelling that encloses the roof trusses.
the volume of this space is around 50000 cubic metres, which if I followed the guidelines o0f 50-100 rays per cubic metre, would be 2.5 - 5 million rays. I ran a simulation on the test simplified box space with 100k rays, which took about 2 hours running on a macbook pro booted into windows. Perhaps I need to find a much more serious machine to run this on. would it be a reasonable assumption to think that as more rays are added, the results would converge on a particular solution? if so, if you had to take a guess, how many rays/m3 would be required to get a solid estimate of reverb time +/- 0.1s?
I don't mean to imply that Pachyderm isnt up to scratch - simply that I'm trying to find some way of determining whether a given set of simulation parameters are going to give a result that will be enough to make decisions about surface materials and treatments that will be required. I tried a bunch of different methods and simulation parameters to see if they were even remotely similar, and unsurprisingly, they werent. I'm not an acoustic engineer, I'm an architect who has studied some acoustics in addition to my regular subjects. I know enough to be dangerous, but I'm trying to convert that into enough to be useful. :). I'm totally open to any advice anyone might offer.
One last thing, could you confirm that the T-30 parameter is T-30 (and so needs to be doubled to get RT60)
Thanks for responding,
Ben
…
ask for some help and I sent the def to someone who tested the def out and made it work and send it right back to me and I got the same error I realized something wasnt right.
here some images of what the def does
Flat hexagonal panels over a given surface.
I get errors with the sliders and the VB script. Original script by Luis Fraguada from LAN then Davide del Giudice/ from madeincalifornia Checked out the definition because I have almost no knowledge with scripting and he made it work and sent those images back to me and this definition fixed, wich doesnt work on my computer and here some images of the problem.
and here some images of the problem.
