arq, que se celebrará entre el 28 de Enero y el 1 de Febrero de 2013 en el Colegio de Arquitectos de Granada.
El taller está destinado a arquitectos, artistas y diseñadores, tanto como profesionales, como estudiantes de grado y posgrado, que, sin necesidad de haber tenido ningún contacto previo con entornos de programación o herramientas informáticas de dibujo paramétrico o generativo, están interesados en probar y experimentar con las opciones que nos pueden ofrecer a los diseñadores.
El taller está dividido en tres bloques:
Curso intensivo: del 28 de Enero al 30 de Febrero, en horario de mañana, de 10 a 14. Taller de proyectos: del 28 de Enero al 30 de Febrero, por la tarde, de 16 a 20; y el 31 de Febrero, durante todo el día.
Presentaciones: viernes 1 de Febrero, mañana y tarde.
Utilizaremos Grasshopper, el editor algorítmico asociado al software de modelado tridimensional y dibujo Rhinoceros, por su facilidad de aprendizaje, al tratarse de un entorno gráfico, facilidad de adquisición, al ser gratuito y haber disponible una versión de prueba de Rhinoceros también gratuita, y amplia difusión en los últimos años. Y lo emplearemos tanto como modelador, como conector entre otros softwares y varias disciplinas. Por este motivo, también utilizaremos algunos de sus plug-ins, como Geco, para análisis ambiental, Elk, para enlazarlo con OpenStreetMap o Kangaroo, para simulación de sistemas físicos.
Lo único que necesitas es un ordenador portátil (si no pudieras conseguir), hacer el ingreso con el importe correspondiente y mandarnos tus datos y el recibo bancario del ingreso a smartlabgranada@gmail.com. Puedes ver los detalles en el apartado de Inscripción. El resto del material, tanto software como hardware, lo ponemos nosotros.
Nuestro acercamiento a estas herramientas es entusiasta acerca del potencial creativo que pueden ofrecer a diseñadores y artistas, pero también crítico y especulativo. Nos alejamos tanto de una posición puramente formalista, como del estricto funcionalismo, a los que desde los últimos años frecuentemente se ha asociado a esta disciplina.…

and enhancing its intrinsic qualities.
The program of the workshop consists of an intense exploration of Günther Domenig’s Steinhaus (situated at Ossiachersee in Carinthia, Austria) and it’s visible and hidden properties. By the use of mapping strategies these properties can be isolated and will be implemented as a temporary installation.
Each participant will investigate certain spatial aspects using methods of mapping.
In a series of tutorials on various techniques, strategies will be developed to translate and structure the collected information into a unified spatial concept. Participants will work amongst groups to propose the result of their investigations with a site specific installation which will be digitally materialized on site.
Complementary program:
lecture by Stefan Rutzinger & Kristina Schinegger, soma
guided tour and lecture about Steinhaus and Günther Domenig by Christian Halm
presentation by Clemens Preisinger, karamba

geode. The faceting system also references the original use of triangulation for mapping three dimensional landscapes.
My question responds to the need to control the edges lengths and angles within the triangles to make the process of construction possible. We are hoping to keep the edges under 28 inches and the minimum angle more than 15 degrees. What would be your suggestion in grasshopper?
Our process for getting the facet was also... the long way.
1. draw curves based on three dimension measurements of interior
2. networks surface the four curves
3. mesh surface
4. triangulate mesh
5. reduce polygons
6. splitmeshedge where necessary to make quadrilaterals triangles once more
Any suggestions?…

Il comfort visivo e la gestione dell’illuminazione naturale in relazione al risparmio energetico diventano sempre più rilevanti per una progettazione innovativa degli edifici. Ad esempio, il nuovo protocollo LEED 4 riconosce crediti per le simulazioni di daylighting e conferma l’importanza degli aspetti progettuali per “collegare gli occupanti con lo spazio esterno, rinforzare i ritmi circadiani, ridurre i consumi di energia elettrica per l’illuminazione artificiale con l’introduzione della luce naturale negli spazi”. Senza strumenti software per la simulazione della luce non è possibile ottenere risultati di qualità. Radiance è un software validato, utilizzato sia a livello di ricerca che dai progettisti ed è tra i più accurati per la simulazione professionale della luce naturale e artificiale. Non ha limiti di complessità geometrica ed è adatto a essere integrato in altri software di calcolo e interfacce grafiche. Queste ultime facilitano le procedure di programmazione. Le principali e più versatili saranno oggetto del corso (DIVA4Rhino e Ladybug+ Honeybee, plug-in per Grasshopper e Rhinoceros 3D).
Il corso è rivolto a progettisti e ricercatori che vogliano acquisire strumenti pratici per la simulazione con Radiance al fine di mettere a punto e verificare le soluzioni più adatte alle proprie esigenze. Sono previste lezioni di teoria e pratica con esempi ed esercitazioni volte a coprire in modo dimostrativo ed interattivo i concetti trattati.
Le domande di iscrizione devono essere presentate entro il 12 maggio 2016.

ers of the last surface in the Brep, however, only the corners of the bounding box of the surface are generated)
It seems the rs.SurfacePoints only returens the control points of a surface rather than the actual corners of the surface. Can you advise if there's a way to do it?
Thank you!

lysing and assessing sustainable performance of buildings and structures, called sustainability-open. Yes, open-source: that means everybody can use it as much as they want. We hope that this will give designers and engineers to make more sustainable buildings and structures in the future. And you can take a look at our code - to learn or improve it if you like! The framework is still in early stage and doesn't do a lot yet at the moment, so this is your chance to become an early-adopter.(By the way, very soon new components will come out that will early let you do more.)
The framework is linked to Grasshopper and Rhino - as soon as we have a little bit more, we will add some links on this site too.
At the Design Modelling Symposium Berlin (September 28 - October 3)we will host a workshop over the weekend which will show you everything about the framework and its components, our future plans, etc. We will also teach you how to develop your own components. Not everything will be purely related to the framework as we will be doing a lot of .net development related to Rhino/Grasshopper and other parametric applications. If you would like to know more about the framework, take a look at: http://www.sustainability-open.com or follow us on Twitter: @sustainableopenIf you would like to sign up for the workshop in Berlin or would like to know more, go here:https://www.design-modelling-symposium.de/frontend/index.php?folder...Regards,Jeroen…

oo culm and the web is mad of bamboo slats connected to the culms on either side of the attachment points. To make things clearer (extracted from the above paper):
The authors of the paper did a numerical beam-model in ANSYS to see if they could replicate their theoretical results, and it is fairly correct (some differences due to the non-linear behavior of the semi-ring joints that they use, they remain of an order of 5-10% difference in maximum deflection).
My problem is that I am not able to obtain the same deflection values that the authors did (11.4 mm for a total service load of 7.063 kN applied punctually on the upper chord where the truss elements meet, or even replicate the load/deflection curve). Using an orthotropic material, with the engineering constants taken from (ResearchGate - A bamboo Beam-Column Connection Capable to Transmit Moment), my model is too flexible and I get a maximum deflection of 24.28 mm. I tried other orthotropic mechanical characterizations from other sources (Kathry & Mishra, 2012, Finite element analysis of bamboo and joints using steel members under various loading conditions for design study and Chand , Shukla & Sharma, 2008, Analysis of Mechanical Behaviour of Bamboo (Dendrocalamus strictus) by Using FEM), to no avail.
Of course, the problem could be with the material properties I inputted but I am trying to contact the research team to see directly with them. In the meantime, I am looking to make sure the model itself is not flawed.
It also seems to me that gravity was not accounted for in the numerical of the paper, but it seemed to much of an oversight to be possible (still, the deflection curve of their paper goes through 0).
There are several points I am not quite sure about: after all I am still fairly new to Karamba3D and may still have some things to learn about the inner mechanics of the plugin.
The very first is: should I put eccentricities of the slat-elements of the truss in the definition of their cross-section (directly with the Cross Section box) or as an offset of the beam element (with the ModifyElem box)? I tried both approaches and they seem to yield similar results (max. deflection change by 0.65mm in my latest model).
Second is: is it good practice to subdivide the beam elements in more than one element (and connecting the pieces rigidly) in order to get better results? I imagine some meshing or subdivision is performed when the analysis is run but there is no way of visualizing it (that I found in any case). Subdividing the chord elements seems to give smoother deformation results (though I did not check stress I have to admit). My issue on this topic is that the subdivision of the slat-elements of the web is problematic. On the screenshot below, where the elements are divided in two, lets take the example of node 18. It seems to me that all elements of the diagonal element (28, 29, 34 & 35) are all rigidly connected to the node 18. 28 & 29 are not connected together, independently from 34 & 35. The added rigidity may not be a bad thing for my model, but it is not correct I think? Is there a way of solving the problem?

Thank you all in advance for any insight (even on the inner logics of Karamba)!
