Developable surface using discrete geodesic nets

[wok]

Hi, A question for Daniel or anyone else who might have a link. I’ve searched discourse with no joy, other than finding various other interesting associated topics! I saw Daniel’s video https://vimeo.com/273918494, and wonder if the example has been, or can be shared? Many thanks

Hi @wok,

I posted here the definition from that video:

Plywood Strips twisting and bending simulation

Hi Sotiris, Sorry @agakorz14 I missed this discussion the first time around. For an initially flat strip like this where the thickness is very small in relation to the width, the deformed shape should closely approximate a developable strip. There is unlikely to be significant in-plane bending or stretching. If we are just considering the shape it bends/twists into for a certain combination of end positions/orientations, and it is not significantly affected by self weight, then this shape doe…

I’m planning at some point to try and improve this, and include the developments from their follow up papers which include a way of doing curved creases.

Thanks Daniel, and apologies I did not realize that was it! Much appreciated.
