The class is taught in English, fully online in 2 sessions of 3 hours each and an additional Q&A day via email. The course is scheduled between 8:00 and 11:00 UTC. This means that it is scheduled between 10:00 and 13:00 for Central European Summer Time (CEST) and between 16:00 and 19:00 for China Standard Time (CST – Beijing time).
Participants are expected to have a basic understanding of Grasshopper. Familiarity with Autodesk Ecotect is not required. You will be able to ask questions in the class through a live chat designed to give participants support on theory and exercises developed during the course.…
ay be other issues with your geometry, but this is usually the issue people run into.)
Rays will lose energy much more slowly when a room is very reflective, but such conditions only really exist with polished painted concrete. I don't know how many such rooms you've ever been in. I can count them on one hand - and I've been to acoustic reverberation chambers on 3 continents.
Pachyderm works with a ray decimation algorithm. This means that a ray will be traced out to the cutoff time, unless it has lost enough energy that its further contribution to the impulse response is negligible. At this time, the ray is discontinued. So, the more absorption in the room, the less time it will take to run the simulation. So, more realistic absorption coefficients will allow a model to run in a more reasonable amount of time.
Gypsum board/Plasterboard will typically be between 8 and 11 percent at mid and high frequencies, and higher at low frequencies, for example. Concrete, unless polished and painted, is still a little porous, so you can probably make it 3 to 5 percent.
Regarding sources and receivers, adding more receivers adds almost nothing to calculation time (until the every end, when it extrapolates a pressure response, anyway). This is because the receivers are entered into a spatial partition system, which allows it to be done in an optimized way. Adding multiple sources will effectively multiply the calculation time by the number of sources, because the simulation needs to be repeated for each source individually.
Hopefully this helps you figure out how to run simulations with reasonable run times.

TB of RAM. I think I'm going to start a GoFundMe campaign to buy one for myself :)
2- The server's cost is about $13 an hour. I get free access to supercomputer through my university and xsede.org because I earned an NSF Honorable mention last March, however, the supercomputers available through both resources are a little complicated for me to use, as opposed to the one available from amazon that has Microsoft server 2012 already installed.
3- I wanted to run 400 annual glare simulations for 400 different views.
4- I tried a to perform annual glare simulation for one view on my Dell XPS that has Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor and 16GB of system memory. The simulation took 2 hours to complete. Radiance parameter ab was set to 6.
5- I wanted to obtain the batch file for each view so I can run them on the server. So I used the fly component to run all 400 simulations and closed the cmd windows, that wasn't bad ( for me at least) because I asked my son to this job for me, he was just glad to help me :)
6- I created one batch file using this cmd command:
dir /s /b *.bat > runall.bat
This created a file with the path to each .bat file. I edited this file in Notepad++ to include the word "start" at the beginning of each line. This was done using the "find and replace" dialogue box.
7- I split my newly created batch file into 3 batch files, each one has about 130 file names and " start" before the file names.
8- installed radiance on my server
9- Ran the first batch file on the server, this started 130 cmd windows performing my simulations, CPU usage was anywhere between 90% to 100% and about 105 GB of RAMs were used.
10. It took about 5 hours to complete all 130 simulations, I expected to run all in 2 hours but can't complain because this would've taken about 260 hours to run on my laptop. After the simulations done I ran the second and then the third batch files ( total of about 15 hours).
11. I got 400 valid dgb files. Couldn't be happier!

h 11 returns two values, and the lists with 10 and 6 return one. In any case, I changed the logic a bit.
Check it out in the other vb component. The idea is just to check if the list is odd or even first with the Mod operator. If the lsit is odd, return the middle item in the list as you have set it up. If the list is even, return the mid items also in the same way as you have set it up. I am attaching the edited .gh file, a Class1.cs file which shows in C# how I set up the component (translated vb code will follow), and the .gha I built from it.
The logic should be a bit easier to follow in this version. Check out the edited vb component in the definition for a 'translated version.'
Apologies for the C# ness...I currently do not have Visual Studio Express installed, just Visual C# express. This one is converting just fine to:
Dim list As New List(Of Object)()Dim out_v As New List(Of Object)()Dim out_i As New List(Of Integer)()If Not DA.GetDataList(0, list) Then ReturnEnd IfDim val As Object = list(Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor(Convert.ToDouble(list.Count / 2))))Dim i As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor(Convert.ToDouble(list.Count / 2)))If (list.Count Mod 2) Then out_v.Add(val) out_i.Add(i)Else out_v.Add(val) out_i.Add(i) out_v.Add(list(i + 1)) out_i.Add(i + 1)End IfDA.SetDataList(0, out_v)DA.SetDataList(1, out_i)…

rights to register the "mapwingis.ocx" file.Francesco, would you be patient just a tiny little bit, so that we could try something else? I would be grateful if you could.
1) Close Grasshopper and Rhino2) Run the Revo Uninstaller Pro and uninstall your MapWinGIS application along with removing all the leftovers from the registry.3) Restart your PC, and once it boots again, make sure that you are logged in as an Adminstrator.4) In your Start menu's search box type: "UAC", which will find your User Account Control Settings. Click on it, and a new window will open. Set the bar on the left to "Never notify".5) Turn off your Antivirus, which ever it is.6) Download the 64 bit version of v4.9.4.2 MapWinGIS.7) Right click on downloaded MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file, and choose "Properties". If there is "Unblock" button click on it, and then click on "OK". If there is no "Unblock" button, just click on "OK".8) Left double click on MapWinGIS-only-v4.9.4.2-x64.exe file and install it to "C:\dev\MapWinGIS" folder. Choose "Full installation" during installation process!9) In your Start menu's search box type: "CMD". Once the "Command prompt" appears do not left click on it! Instead right click on it, and choose "Run as Administrator".10) A command prompt window will open. Type the following command:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /u /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
If command does not result in an error message, then type this one afterwards:
"your_regsvr32_folder_path\regsvr32.exe" /s c:\dev\mapwingis\mapwingis.ocx
11) If no error appeared again, then open your Rhino and Grasshopper and check what Gismo_Gismo component prints from its "readMe!" output.If errors appeared, it would be nice if you could post their screenshots.…

l use Rhino 4.0 and corresponding GH version, as a result i could not open your Rhino file.
Hence in your definition as i see,
1) Spring Force-1 -Connection has 11 'inter' components. The inter components do not have any input data and hence 'orange'. What are the inputs for 'inter'?
2) Spring Force - 2 -'Connection'has 1 point component. Rest length & Cut off has 'mass addition' data. This force is also orange, could u throw a light on this please?
3) Pull to surface - both forces has no point input, hence it is orange too. could u throw a light on this too please?
4) There are 2 x Cartesian product components not connected to anything.
I realise that partially it could be because i'm using lower version of Rhino. However, ur input will be highly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Agneesh…
each circle's border, let us say 1.0
3) So, the curve will end up with 5 points, in each point will have a circle, each circle will have a different Radius, but the distance in between the borders of each circle is always the same = 1.0 in this case.
4) The end result list here would be like this to evaluate a curve with these values and find the points on the curve:
List = 1, 5, 11, 19 etc If I use these values to eval a line, I will get the perfect points where I can draw the circles.
…
e now contains (40x3x11=)1320 points with a branch structure of {0-39,0-2} i.e
{0;0}
{0;1}
{0;2}
{1;0}
...
{39;2}
with each branch containing 11 points.
I now want to create lines from the points on line {x;0} to {x;1}, {x;1} to {x;2}, and {x;2} to {x;0}, which will give me a triangular grid on each triangle. How do i do this? I think I need to split the tree 40 times to give me 40 single layered trees but I imagine there's a cleverer way of doing this!
This feel like it should be simple, but I;m having trouble working with the double-layered branch structure. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Matt…
