Kangaroo Physics on-line workshop
Host: McNeel Europe (Barcelona)
Ping-Hsiang Chen, senior architect and computational designer on the Zaha Hadid Architects in London, will educate a Kangaroo Physics on-line workshop organised by McNeel Europe. This course will make it easier to get began with Kangaroo Physics, a completely built-in reside physics engine in Grasshopper for interactive simulation, form-finding, optimization, and constraint-solving developed by Daniel Piker. It additionally permits the simulation of fabric conduct and helps you conduct geometry evaluation or produce animations. The course introduces the principle ideas of constraints, particle methods, and inscribing materials properties to a design to grasp how geometries react to them. Individuals will even learn to use Kangaroo with various kinds of geometries resembling NURBS, Mesh, and SubD.
On completion of this course, contributors are anticipated to have the ability to: Use Kangaroo for kind discovering with varied constraint setup, perceive attainable purposes with physics-based modeling, work between totally different geometry sorts resembling NURBS, Mesh, and SubD, create customized geometry features utilizing Kangaroo with new options in Rhino 7.
Day 1
Introduction to physics-based modeling. Introduction to Kangaroo solvers and fundamental setup. Targets and forces. Creating tensile buildings with Kangaroo. Understanding constraints, Interplay between components. Origami and folding conduct.
Day 2
Day 3
Geometry optimization with Kangaroo. Genetic algorithm. Utilizing Kangaroo for fabrication. Superior modeling workflow utilizing Kangaroo.
Course necessities: The category is designed for individuals who have already taken the Grasshopper Degree 1 course or use Grasshopper at work every day and perceive the fundamental information construction of Grasshopper. It is usually preferable to have an intermediate stage in Rhino.
Max. variety of contributors: 25. If there is no such thing as a quorum, the course shall be canceled two weeks earlier than.
Course language: English
