number of divisions on that curve as in the defintion (i.e. by 4). The offset in the def is slightly different and should cull two or three more curves as in the lists that show my aim below.
Basically I want to look into each branch of the groups of points from each closed curve . Marking in a list whether it contains a one or a zero (0= outside 1 = coincidents).
{0;0}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;1} 0. 01. 22. 03. 2 {0;2}0. 01. 02. 03. 0 {0;3}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;4}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;5}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;6}0. 01. 22. 23. 1 {0;7}0. 21. 22. 03. 0 {0;8}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;9}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;10}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;11}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;12}0. 21. 22. 23. 2 {0;13}0. 01. 22. 23. 0 {0;14}0. 21. 22. 23. 2
I want to create a list from these points. That marks each curve that pokes out, in a cull pattern as such:
20022210222202
Using a 1 where there are co-incidents in the curve points and the boundary. A 2 for true (outside points) and a 0 for containment. So I might be able to use the 1 in future developments - however if a true false list is easiest I can live with that.
So could I use F(x) function? - to look for 0 or 1's in each bunch of points and thus list as such for a cull pattern? or will Path mapper help me here? Or can I rely on simply grafting and splitting??
I am usure of the neatest solution and would love to learn. Hope you can direct me.rgrds

. From the Thermal Comfort Indices component, Comfort Index 11 (TCI-11):MRT = f(Ta, Tground, Rprim, e)
with:- Ta = DryBulbTemperature coming from ImportEPW component- Tground = f(Ta, N) where N comes from totalSkyCover input. Tground influences the long-wave radiation emitted by the ground in the MRT calculation.- Rprim defined as solar radiation absorbed by nude man = f(Kglob, hS1, ac)- ac is the clothingAlbedo in % (bodyCharacteristics input)- I can't find any definition in the code of Kglob and hS1. Could you tell me please what are those values referencered to? --> probably the globalHorizontalRadiation but how?- e = vapour pressure calculated from Ta and Relative Humidity input
Do you agree that in this case the MRT does not depend on these inputs: location, meanRadiantTemperature, dewPointTemperature and wind speed?It does not depend neither on the other bodyCharacteristics like bodyPosture, age, sex, met, activityDuration...?
MRT calculated by the TCI-11 method is the mean radiant temperature of a vector pointing vertically with a sky view factor of 100%?For ParisOrly epw,
2. From the SolarAdjustedTemperature component (that seems to be more used for the UTCI calculation examples on Hydra compared to TCI-11).
In contrast to the TCI-11, this component distinguishes diffuse and direct radiation and contextualizes the calculation thanks to _ContextShading input, right? It can also be applied to a mannequin thanks to the CumSkyMatrix and thus evaluate the dishomogeneity of radiation exposure.This component seems not to consider the influence of vapour pressure on the result --> is it then more precise to put the MRT output (from the TCI) as an input of meanRadTemperature for SolarAdjustedTemperature?The default groundReflectivity is set to 0.25 --> is GroundReflectivity taken into account in the Tground or MRT calculation in the TCI component? If yes, what is the hypothesised groundReflectivity?The default clothing albedo of 37% (TCI-11 bodyCharacteristics) corresponds to Clothing Absorptivity of 63%?
If the CumSkyMatrix input is not supplied, I get 9 results for the mannequin --> where are those points/results coming from?
If the CumSkyMatrix input is supplied,I suppose the calculation of the 482 results correspond to a calculation method similar to the radiation analysis component that is averaged over the analysis period. Right?But I don't understand why the mannequin is composed of 481 faces and meshFaceResult gives 482 results.
Finally, what is the link between the MESH results, the solarAdjustedMRT and the Effective Radiant field ? Is there a paper to have a detailed explanation of the method?
3. Here are some results for the ParisOrly energyplus weather data. You can find here attached the grasshopper definition.There is no shading in this simulation and the result coming from the ThermalComfort indices for MRT is very different compared to the solar adjusted MRT.Why such a big difference and which of the result should be plugged into the UTCI calculation component?

22 (parametric design)
July 26-27-28-29 (digital fabrication)
The third edition of digitalMed Workshop is structured as a design laboratory. Participants will learn the challenging process of producing ideas, projects and research analysis that are to be developed through specific software and concepts that emerge through the use of mapping, parametric design and digital fabrication.
Goals and Objectives:
We aim to make clear the theoretical and technical knowledge in the approach to parametric and generative design and digital fabrication. (From collection and data management, to the manner in which these inform the geometries, to the fabrication of prototypes.)
Participants will also have the opportunity to practice the new knowledge gained in the design laboratory through project work.
Project Theme:
"Urban Field" Identify, study and analyze the system of public spaces in the urban area of the city of Salerno.
Connection, mutation, generation and evolution are the themes to be followed in project work.
Brief Description of Topics:
- Mapping. Our reality, in all its forms, has studied through concepts of the theory of Complex Systems. The techniques that will be used to study events and places of reality, will work for the management, manipulation and visualization of data and information. These will form the basis for project management and driven geometry, conducted during the second phase of the workshop.
- Parametric Design. Introduction to Rhino* and Grasshopper. Specifically, we will explain the concepts with which to work with the software of parametric design and how they function. Through these tools, we will arrive at the definition of systems of mathematical and / or geometrical relationships that are able to generate and govern patterns, shapes and objects that will inform the final design.
- Digital Fabrication. In this phase, participants of the workshop are organized into working groups. Participants have access to materials and conceptual apparatus that will take them directly to the fabrication of the geometries of the project, with the use of software CAD / CAM interface and the use of machines for the digital fabrication.
The DigitalMed workshop is organized by Nomad AREA (Academy of Research & Training in topics of Contemporary Architecture), in collaboration with the City of Salerno, the Order of Architects Province of Salerno and the National Institute of Architecture In / Arch - Campania.
Interested parties may download the Notice of Competition at the address www.digitalmedworkshop.com and fill the pre-registration no later than July 10th 2012.

ne. Though I suppose providing a help file which lists some useful tricks for some operations would be a good place to start.
It would be possible to add persistent undo to Clusters, and it wouldn't even be that difficult. Adding undo data into the GH file is something I've been meaning to add since the first day of undo/redo, and the plumbing is in fact there, but it was never fully hooked up. I will definitely try this for GH2. And I'll also have a think about how to implement version history for clusters.
Phew, my brain hurts even just to think about this. I suppose step one would be to write a clever merge algorithm for two files that have some things in common and some not. But even that will be tricky as heck.
This is a major problem. First of all, running the solver in a thread and keeping the UI alive will only slow things down even more. On a file which takes 15 minutes to solve that's no big deal, but you certainly don't want to be adding a 20 millisecond delay to a solution which only takes 30 milliseconds.Multi-threading will be something I'm going to try and implement in GH2, but there's only so much I can do. If you run a solid boolean operation on a boatload of shapes, it's a single operation that is performed inside Rhino and there's nothing I can do to make it run on multiple threads. This is in general an issue, sometimes it takes a long time because there are many operations to perform; like offsetting 2500 curves. I can probably multi-thread that provided the Rhino curve offsetter is thread-safe. However stuff may also take a long time because there is a single operation (like the aforementioned huge solid boolean).Lastly, I have no way to predict how long a component is going to take. I can probably work out how far along in steps a component is, but not how far along in time.
What would you do with a solver which runs in the background? How does it differ from only running solutions when you want to? Let's say the solver is threaded and the canvas remains responsive. As soon as you make a change to the GH file, the solver needs to be terminated as it is now computing stale data. Wouldn't it be just as effective to disable the solver, make all the changes you want to make, then press F5?
Just because something runs in a thread doesn't mean you can shoot it in the head any time you want without consequences. Aborting threads typically means setting a boolean somewhere and then letting the thread commit suicide, while performing all the necessary cleanup. If you just destroy a thread there's no saying in what state you leave the memory.
I think a good place to start with these sort of problems is to keep on improving clusters, add more flexible structuring UI such as Layers or Filters or Pages or whatever to the canvas, add ways to share data between remote parts of a file without suffocating the display with wires, and to provide easy ways to temporarily disable parts of a file (think of it as Clipping planes for GH). That way you can make local changes and see local effects before solving the entire file again.
I'm certainly impressed by the sheer extent of the file you people made, it will be a lovely test case for UI improvements.
