hat are going thinner, this is because there is a sort of singularity, a quad with 2 coincident points (a triangle). So in order to replicate that I used 22 control points, that are used to generate 18 quads (3 degenerate quad => triangles).
I used Catmull & Clark subdivision from Weavebird to smooth the thing.
Diagonalize from Kangaroo
I sorted tri and quad in order to modify quad only
A scale in order to have gaps between panels
And at the end I transformed the quad in 2 triangles with the separation on the longest diagonal.
Et voilà !! …
Becouse
i can't use the partition tool since for diffrent days there are
diffrent amounts of hours of sun. eg 1 januari from 8:00 to 16:00
and 1 februari from 8:00 to 18:00. Wich is making the information
in the list very hard to handle.So can anyone help me find the average yearly sunvector for every hour
for each month
for example
avg sunvector for the whole of januari1:00, avg sunvector (the avareages of all sunvectors at 1:00 in januari)2:00 , avg sunvector3:00 , avg sunvectoruntill24:00, sunvector tempavg for the whole of februari1:00, avg sunvector2:00 , avg sunvector (the avareages of all sunvectors at 2:00 in februari)3:00 , avg sunvectoruntill24:00, avg sunvectorand this for every month of the year.
I want to be able to optimize a surface wich is divided into multiple meshes (so for each part of the surface i want to relate it's normal to the vector of the sun). I'm not so much interested in the visualisations. I hope this is atleast abit understandable.ps: this question is atleast abit simular to my previous question on wich i got some really good help, wich i'm very gratefull for.
Thanks in advance!Included: gh file + the epw file i'm using…
e 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 14-17 July, and a public conference beginning with Talkshop 18 July, followed by a Symposium 19 July. The event follows the format of the highly successful preceding events sg2010 Barcelona, sg2011 Copenhagen, sg2012 Troy, and sg2013 London.

URBAN COMPACTION
Large cities thrive on density and diversity. But beyond the energy and pollution advantages of the elevator over the automobile, complex issues are at play in concentrating population and built infrastructure in contemporary high-rise cities. How do you meet the challenges of system design for high quality compact urban environments?
Designing for high and increasing density in cities is a complex and wicked problem that calls for innovative approaches to modelling in diverse areas of the city’s dynamics.
sg2014 Challenge: Urban Compaction
WORKSHOP
The SG Workshop is a unique creative cauldron attracting attendees from across the world of academia, professional practice as well as many of the brightest students. The Workshop is open to 100 applicants who come together for four intensive days of design and collaboration.
The annual Workshop is organised around Clusters. Clusters are hubs of expertise comprising of people, knowledge, tools, materials and machines. The Clusters provide a focus for Workshop participants working together, within a common framework.
We now have an open call to submit proposals for Workshop Clusters
call for clusters
CONFERENCE
Talkshop Conference Day One
After four intense days of innovative work, the first day of the conference, the Talkshop, offers an opportunity for critical reflection on what has been accomplished in the Workshop. Talkshop will be an opportunity to open debates, pose questions, challenge orthodoxies, and propose new ideas.
Talkshop will feature informal and open discussions between Cluster participants, leading practitioners and emerging talents in digital design, offering inside perspectives on how the landscape of computational design is reshaping built form.
Symposium Conference Day Two
The second day of the conference, the Symposium, will feature invited keynote speakers showcasing major projects and research from around the globe that mark out the territory of the year's Challenge. The Symposium is a unique opportunity to hear insights into the challenges ahead for the discipline.
Interwoven throughout the day will be reports and highlights from each Workshop Cluster, giving an opportunity to view work created during the previous four days of intensive collaboration, design and development.
More information about the conference, including speakers, to be posted soon.

component I just used different components and GH tools to do the same - and this become part of my short paper submission for SimAUD 2016). My solution compares the height of the same points of different solar envelope and then chose the lowest one. I read about the improvement you are working on and it is good but I think it is not yet what I need (or how the solar envelope tool could be more complete).
What I need is a solar envelope that would guarantee on different facades with different orientations (the example I sent you) a certain amount of direct sunlight, say 4h per day in a given period for example all the month of June at 60°N. So to guarantee the south facing facade I should chose the vectors from 10 to 14. But these are not ok for all the other facades because in this timeframe the East and West facing facades get only 2 hours and the North get 0 hours.
So the fist step would be have the possibility to chose different sun vectors for different facades. For the example I did (the 4 hours in June at 60°N) the south facing facade would need from 10 to 14, the East facing for example from 8 to 12, the West facing facade from 12 to 16 and the North facing facade from 6 to 8 and from 18 to 20.
If I would chose a single longer time frame that could get all these hours, from 8 to 20 then the resulting solar envelope would result probably smaller than the sum of the four solar envelopes.
But this is not complete yet. I mean the use of different sun vectors on different facades. The reason is that for example when I chose the sun vectors from 8 to 12 for the four hours on the East facing facade how do I know that the sun hit on the facade in that time frame or maybe it is obstructed by surrounding buildings? Since the sun at 60°N (where I live) in June rise at around 3.15 then maybe for that specific facade the sun hit from 4 to 8 and not from 8 to 12.
I did an extreme case talking about 60°N and that maybe the sun hit on a facade at 4 instead than 12, but it is just to make understand the logic. My suggestion for a more advanced solar envelope it should be integrated with the Sunlight Hours tool of ladybug. So the input should not be the sun vectors because I don't know when the sun hit on the facade but the input should be just the desired number of hours and the possibility to specify different number of hours for each facade. Then this last component that sum different solar envelope (I didn't use it yet but I understood what it does) should be integrated yes so the result would be one single solar envelope more likely using the lowest points (the highest I don't understand what for).
Let me know what you think!

ally to describe a process of repeating objects in a self-similar way. Simply stated, the definition of a recursive function includes the function itself. Fractals are among the canonical examples of recursion in mathematics and programming. A loop can simply be a way to apply the same operation to a list of elements, but it is an iterative loop if the results from one step are used in the calculation of the next step. In design research controlling recursion becomes a new strategy to define new forms and spaces.
BRIEF
In this workshop we will be exploring iterative strategies through parametric design. Main tool for the course will be grasshopper3d and its add-on Anemone. Anemone is a simple but effective plug-in for Grasshopper that enables for loops in a simple and linear way. We will explore several strategies such iterative growth, L systems, fractals, recursive subdivisions and more. Our course will focus on how those methods can affect three-dimensional geometries, generating unexpected conformations.
