mite
Grasshopper plugin · v1.3.1 · updated
Open-source mesh curvature analysis, form-finding and gridshell toolkit. Principal, Gaussian, and mean curvature; curvature streamlines, umbilics and isocurves. Planarization, minimal surfaces, force density method and dynamic relaxation on a fast sparse solver. Symmetric asymptotic webs after Schling and asymptotic-asymptotic-geodesic (AAG) webs of straight flat slats; asymptotic, geodesic, Chebyshev and conjugate nets with evenly-spaced auto-seeding, plus shortest geodesic paths. Lath buildability analysis with bending and twist strain checks and frame analysis of the whole network with fixed or pinned supports and rigid, hinged or semi-rigid joints. Turn nets into buildable gridshells: one profile (rectangular, round or custom) for every lath — swept, strain-checked and used as the beam section — flat or upright; cut half-lap or egg-crate joints at every crossing, unroll flat cutting patterns, segment to stock lengths with splice joints, label laths and export the net topology. Net Kinetics moves a scissor-jointed asymptotic net as a mechanism (fold slider, supports, cables). Mesh healing, pull-to-mesh and one-step colour maps.
