Optimised daylighting and energy modelling plugin for Grasshopper. Unlike Galapagos, Goat will yield the same optimal result every time. Goat complements or replaces Galapagos as an optimisation solver, using a fast and rigorous approach to achieve deterministic results. Unlike BESO Rhino or TopOpt, Millipede works directly with grasshopper and supports completely 3D geometry and complex meshes. Again, much like the methods used to design the Qatar National Convention Centre.
Millipede takes a structural form and removes unnecessary materials until what’s left is the important structural form. Structural analysis and optimisation component for grasshopper. Similar to Galapagos, Octopus is an optimisation plugin that applies evolutionary principles to grasshopper scripts, however it is able to search for many goals at once and achieve trade-off solutions between multiple fitness values.Ī topology optimisation plugin that allows for 2D optimisation of continuum structures with tension and compression prioritisation and dual material support for composite structures. Gives feedback data that can be combined with with Galapagos to achieve optimised results.
Plugin that analyses the response of 3D beam and shell structures with real-world properties under arbitrary loads.
DIVA ECOTECT SOFTWARE
This geometry/information combo can then be baked into an IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) file which can be imported into true BIM software such as Revit as compatible components fully editable in that software. Grasshopper plugin that introduces BIM into parametrically modelled geometry. The software takes a geometry with fixed nodes and load points, then breaks it down into its minimum required structural form, much like the methods used to design the Qatar National Convention Centre. Software developed by RMIT that comes in two parts the first, a plugin for Rhino that prepares and exports geometry that can then be analysed by the second, a standalone program. Includes tension and compression analysis particularly useful for architecture. Visual feedback includes colour-coded areas of stresses, actual and simulated deflection, and numerical data. Simulation requires selecting fixed/restrained faces, loads and materials, then applying a force to these. The software is also able to analyse this geometry structurally and give visual (colour-coded) feedback, force diagrams and data.Ĭompletely automated structural simulation and analysis software that requires no pre-processing of existing Rhino models. Rhino VAULT creates complex geometries in a way that can be described (somewhat oversimply) as lifting a tablecloth up at the middle. Helpful for identifying pinch points, dead zones and areas of high movement.įorm-finding software that generates 3D vaults, arches, domes etc. Simulate, analyse and visualise how people will move about in and between spaces. Real-time crowd flow software built into the Rhino interface.
Based on compressive and tensile architecture, SMART Form helps analyse and optimise smooth geometry and fluid forms using constraints and environmental factors.
Real-time form-finding software built into the Rhino interface.
