o use these extensions in order to integrate numerous tools for analysis and simulation in the architectural process.
This course aims to develop a link between the virtual and the real context model through structural or environmental simulations, using other software or plug-ins dedicated. Through this link the virtual model receives physical properties that can further modify and adapt the initial model. This creates feedback loops that can optimize the design to provide an object responsive to environmental conditions.
Curriculum
Mesh subdivision with Weaverbird, continuous surfaces without NURBS
Genetic optimization with Galapagos, optimal search
Physical environment feedback with Diva and Geco, solar and day lighting analysis
Adding physical properties with Kangaroo Physics, interactive form-finding
Linking the parametric model with structural analysis using Karamba, structural performance simulation
Extracting data with Firefly and Kinect, 3D scanning and human movement tracking
Exchange of information between Grasshopper and other applications with Ghowl links to internet feeds or Excel files.

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
s than 40% on average.2. 8gb usage is steady at 28% 3. I've been now looking at 2 blank white screen, in both Rhino and Grasshopper for well over 20 min. finally I went for a walk at 10:25am, (its a beautiful day why waste it looking at nonexistent calculations, It would help if there was a timing function in the code that would let me know how long the calculations were going to take, came back 11:25am still no results. Had to Quit Rhino in the Start manager.
I have used all sorts of window programs for well over 25 years. Rhino and Grasshopper are the only 2 programs that I have ever seen that show totally white screens in their operating windows :(

right? When the dataTree is this simple its not really a problem, but when it grows and I want to be able to refer to a specific GH branch e.g. {11;320} and I need to read this specific branch in Python? How do I do this?
I know that there is the function tree.Path(x) this will give me the GH Path, but how do I figure out what x needs to be? I guess there must be a simple answer :).
Thanks Rasmus…

ractive way to implement physics-based constraints into your parametric workflows. Through a series of short presentations and “live” exercises, learn essential techniques for setting up and developing Simulations with Kangaroo in Grasshopper, ranging from particle systems to spring networks.
This webinar will last 2.5 hours including multiple open Q & A sessions. With two instructors offering guided curriculum and continuous support it is our goal to provide you with an in-depth and personal learning experience. A video of the webinar as well as instructor files will be uploaded after the broadcast – all participants will have unlimited access to the webinar content and this video online. Registration can be found below. We look forward to your participation!
Topics:
What is Physics-Based Simulation and when is it useful?
What types of Simulations can I develop with Kangaroo?
What are Force-Objects and what is Physical Geometry?
How can I calibrate and control my Simulation?

rcle A 0---1---2Circle B 0---1---2---3---4---5---6---7---8---9---10---11I was actually trying to connect through separated lines, point (A,0) to (B,11) and (B,1),point (A,1) to point (B,3) and (B,5), and (A,2) to (B,7) and (B,9).I was able to do it using a list item selecting the points and creating a line between them, but i would be to long to do it if i would like to divide in many more points, and try to connect them using list item... i went looking around for a bit, i think its possible to do it with a path mapper or a flip matrix, althought i have no clue how to make it.
You will find enclosed, some screenshots...If anyone could give me any tip, i thank you all in advance.Have a nice day.+Joan…

he default for Rhino, degree=5 gives you smoother curves, but each control point matters less, degree=11 is the highest degree Rhino allows. Apart from 2, degrees tend to be odd rather than even, though Rhino supports both.
In addition to the degree and the control points, Nurbs curves have knots. A single knot is just a number, and the list of all knots is called the knot-vector of a curve. The number of knots depends on both the degree and the control-point count, and the spacing of the knots affects the shape of the curve a little bit. If there are <degree> knots with the same value, then the curve is somewhat discontinuous at that location which could manifest itself as a kink or as a clamped end-point. However it is not possible by just looking at the shape of a curve to say where stacked knots might be, but you can use the Rhino _List command to inspect all details of a Nurbs curve.…
arget group The workshop is addressed to students of architecture and civil engineering faculties at master level from Estonia (11 seats), Latvia (3 seats), Lithuania (3 seats) and Sweden (3 seats). The selected students will have full scholarship that will include travel, board and lodging in Tallinn for 10 days (arrival on Sunday 03.07.2016 departure on Wednesday 13.07.2016). The workshop is funded by the NORDPLUS programme of the Nordic Council of Ministers (NCM) - Higher Education objective.
Description The use of digital and computational design tools is increasingly important for the activity of design and research for architects and engineers. It permits to integrate environmental and energy aspects from the very early stages of the design and planning process to achieve more performative, efficient and integrated buildings and urban environments. The workshop attendants will broaden their design and technical knowledge with solar design, daylighting and energy efficiency topics and will learn how to integrate environmental analysis and building performance analysis tools with parametric and generative methodologies in architecture and planning.
Location
Tallinn University of Technology – Departments of Structural Design and Environmental Engineering
Dates
From 04 to 12 July 2016
