NURBS using Rhinoceros. Content includes: Basic terminology, user interface, workflow strategies, using reference material and creating drawings from modeled geometry.
Workshop 2: Introduction to Parametric Design
Instructor: Rajaa Issa
(12:30 PM-3:30 PM)
This workshop will introduce the general framework of parametric thinking with a series of hands-on tutorials using Grasshopper for Rhinoceros. It is meant for beginners who have little to no idea about parametric modeling. The workshop will introduce the general components of an algorithm, design workflow, Grasshopper interface and visualization techniques. The students are expected to have basic knowledge of the Rhino modeling environment. Workshop 1 should fulfill this requirement.
Registration: Computers and software will be provided. Space is limited to 20 seats per workshop. The fee for each workshop is $60 (plus a $4.29 fee). There is a special rate of $30 (plus a $2.64 fee) for students and teachers provided they request a discount here with their school email address before registering. Register now……
error, but resetting the height to <100m should fix things.
The height of the night boundary reflects the diurnal pattern of the urban boundary layer (image below). During the day the solar shortwave radiation heats up the urban surface, mixes with the air above creating a tall boundary layer. During the night the surface cools down, the boundary layer becomes more stable, and it's height is reduced. So typical heights for daytime is ~ 1000m, and for nightime ~ >100m.
So increasing it by a factor of 8 to 10 is likely what is causing issues with the UWG calculation for you. I started a github issue here: https://github.com/chriswmackey/Dragonfly/issues/11 so that we can fix this typo. Also we should figure out why exactly the calculation is failing so that can potentially put an upper bound to the inputs or a better error message. Thanks for catching it!
Finding some reference data linking weather layers to urban typologies is a good question, I'd like to find some too. Perhaps Chris/Mostapha might be able to provide some? You can check out the following thesis [1],[2] that the UWG algorithm is based on, which references three case studies for Singapore (Punggol), Capitoul and Bubble:

Ladybug + Honeybee:
(Follow steps 0-4 for basic functionality and 0-9 for full functionality)
0. If you have an old version of LB+HB, download the file here (https://app.box.com/s/ds96em9l6stxpcw8kgtf)
and open it in Grasshopper to remove your old Ladybug and Honeybee version.
1. Make sure that you have a working copy of both Rhino and Grasshopper installed.
2. Open Rhino and type "Grasshopper" into the command line (without quotations). Wait for grasshopper to load.
3. Install GHPython 0.6.0.3 by downloading the file at this link (http://www.food4rhino.com/project/ghpython?ufh) and
drag the .gha file onto the Grasshopper canvas.
4. Select and drag all of the userObject files (downloaded with this instructions file) onto your Grasshopper canvas.
You should see Ladybug and Honeybee appear as tabs on the grasshopper tool bar.
(If you are reading this instruction on github you can download them from http://www.food4rhino.com/project/ladybug-honeybee)
5. Restart Rhino and Grasshopper. You now have a fully-functioning Ladybug. For Honeybee, continue to the following:
6. Install Radiance to C:\Radiance by downloading it from this link (https://github.com/NREL/Radiance/releases/download/4.2.2/radiance-4.2.2-win32.exe) and running the exe.
7. Install Daysim 4.0 for Windows to C:\DAYSIM by downloading it at this link (http://daysim.ning.com/page/download) and running the exe.
8. Install EnergyPlus 8.1 to C:\EnergyPlusV8-1-0 by going to the DOE website (http://apps1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/energyplus/energyplus_download.cfm), making an account, going to "download older
versions of EnergyPlus, selecting 8.1 and running the exe.
9. Copy falsecolor2.exe (http://pyrat.googlecode.com/files/falsecolor2.exe) and evalglare.exe (http://www.ise.fraunhofer.de/en/downloads-englisch/software/evalglare_windows.zip/at_download/file) to C:\Radiance\bin
10. You now have a fully-working version of Ladybug + Honeybee. Get started visualizing weather data with these video tutorials (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLruLh1AdY-Sj_XGz3kzHUoWmpWDXNep1O).
After I've done all the above I followed this video
https://vimeo.com/96155674
And everything works well.
…
e actual method.
Below, I descibe how they work:
1) drag "scheduleDay" onto the canvas
2) drag some Gene Pool lists onto the canvas and connect a number slider - from 0 to 3.
3) connect the Gene Pool list to _genePool input. The component change some important features of the Gene Pool list automatically. Now you have LB_GenePool!!
4) choose the template that it's suitable for you.
5) disconnect LB_GenePool and if templates are not good, you can change them manually
6) drag "Ladybug annual schedule" onto the canvas
7) Connect LB_GenePools to inputs for the days of the week, Epw file and if you want to "_holiday" (in this way you consider holidays). Now you have your simple schedule.
8) a small workflow to visualize it into Rhino..
9) Connect "Ladybug annual schedule" to "Honeybee_Create CSV Schedule" to make your csv Schedule
You could make a schedule more complex than the one in the example above.
You can do that with _analysisPeriod input.

nted" in space (at instance definition creation phase): indicates the obvious fact that if garbage in > garbage out (try it).
2. Load the GH thing. Task for you: Using Named Views locate the points of interest as described further and make a suitable view. That way you can navigate rather easily around (hope dies last).
3. Your attractors are controlled from here:
The slider in blue picks some attractor to play with. You can use this while the K2 is running.
4. Don't change anything here (think of it as a black box: who cares how it works? nobody actually):
5. Enable the other "black box": job done your real-life stuff is placed:
6. Enable the solver: your "real-life" things start to bounce around:
7. Go there are play with the slider. A different attractor yields an other solution:
8. With real-life things in place if you disable the C# ... they are instantly deleted and you are back in lines/points and the likes:
9. Either with instance definitions or Lines/points change ... er ... hmm ... these "simple" parameters and discover the truth out there:
10. Since these are a "few" and they affect the simulation with a variety of ways ... we need a "self calibrating" system: some mini big Brother that does the job for us. Kinda like applying safely the brakes when it rains (I hate ABS mind).
NOTE: the rod with springs requires some additional code ,more (that deals with NESTED instance definitions) in order to (b) bounce as a whole and at the same time (b) elongates or shrinks a bit.
More soon.

EDIT: DK2 works, not with positional tracking yet (14/09/15)
Source is here:
https://github.com/provolot/RhinoRift
Steps:
1) Download these files (also attached below):
https://github.com/provolot/oculus-grasshopper/raw/master/oculus-grasshopper_v0.4.ghx
https://github.com/provolot/oculus-grasshopper/raw/master/OpenTrackRiftGrasshopperUDP.ini
https://github.com/provolot/oculus-grasshopper/raw/master/oculus-grasshopper-test_v0.1.3dm
2) Download OpenTrack - http://ananke.laggy.pk/opentrack/, and setup/install. Once installed, double-click to open.
3) In OpenTrack, load the 'OpenTrackRiftGrasshopperUDP.ini' profile. Click the 'Start' button and move your Rift around - make sure that it looks like the Yaw/Pitch/Roll data is being sent. TX/TY/TZ will all be 0, as Oculus doesn't have absolute positioning data.
4) In Rhino, open the test 3dm. You'll notice that there are two viewports - called 'LeftEye' and 'RightEye'. These have been placed to mimic where the screens should be for the Oculus Rift --- but only when Rhino is in fullscreen mode, with the command 'Fullscreen'. The placement needs to be tweaked, but should work.
If you want to use your own model, you can load your own .3dm file in Rhino, then you can right-click on the viewport name, and go to Viewport Layout > Read from File. If you then load my test file, Rhino should open my two viewports, sized correctly, onto your model.
The placement of these viewports need to be tweaked; if you find a better viewport layout, upload an empty Rhino file with your viewports, and we can share eye-layout 'templates'!
5) In Grasshopper, open the .ghx definition. Everything that is multiple-grouped is a value that can be changed. Two things here:
- IPD: Set this and convert it to the proper units for your model.
- Left/right viewport names. In this case, leave this as-is, since you're using my example file.
6) Turn on the Grasshopper Timer, if it isn't on already.
7) In the GH definition, toggle 'SyncEyes' to be True. Then, in the left viewport, try orbiting around with the mouse. The 'RightEye' viewport should move around as well, pretty much simultaneously.
8) In OpenTrack, click 'Start', then toggle 'ReadUDP' to be True. You should see the 'OpenTrackInfo' panel fill with data that's constantly changing.
9) Move around the landscape with your camera, and when you set on a starting view that's ideal, click the triangle of the Data Dam component to 'store' the data.
10) Finally, toggle 'OculusMove' to be true. If all works correctly, both viewports should move based on the Rift's movement.
Let me know if you have any problems!
Cheers,
Dan…

ted (in the old scheme, all inputs were always taken into account) and it's more obvious what happens to the data just by looking at an image. Also, it clears out the component menu and it's easier to add more functionality later on without creating too much confusion.
Interpolate will 'sample' the data at equally spaced intervals. Let's say you have a list of 8 fruits, as I used in my example. What happens if you interpolate this list using 4 samples? Well, the first and last sample are always centered on the first and last items in the original list. The in between samples are distributed at equidistant intervals:
So you'd end up with a list containing {Lemon, Bergamot, Mandarin, Tangerine}. If you interpolate this list using 12 equally spaced samples, it will look like this:
and it results in a list containing {Lemon, Lime, Lime, Bergamot, Grapefruit, Grapefruit, Orange, Orange, Mandarin, Rangpur, Rangpur, Tangerine}. Of course interpolating a list may result in weird sampled intervals because of the rounding of sample parameter to list indices.
Interpolation does not sample in between values. It will not return a value that is 30% Grapefruit and 70% Orange. This kind of interpolation is only possible on a subset of data types (numbers, vectors, points, colours etc.) but these components must operate on all data types. I added a specific interpolation component as well, that performs numeric sampling using 4 possible interpolation functions, but this is a wholly different kind of interpolation.
