Hi guys! I’ve been strugling for some time now trying to solve this, so I figured I could ask around at the source :wink: I have tried with surfaces but didn’t manage to solve the topology part. Then I switched to meshes… What I have is an ellipsoidal structure with the crack around it. Crack is t…

am1 re2.gh (161.7 KB) Without plugins I need to use some scripts… Another way would be to create a small circle around the middle of each edge and intersect the mesh with it, obtaining 2 point, finding the 2 normals, making average, etc etc… but that is slower and can lead to some inaccuracy. Al…

Rhino methods include topology for meshes. There could be plugins for that, but i haven’t them, so i use small c# scripts… am1 re.gh (32.8 KB) private void RunScript(Mesh M, ref object EL, ref object EF) { int n = M.TopologyEdges.Count; List<Rhino.Geometry.Line> edges = new List<Rhino…

First of all - thanks Riccardo for a quick reply! Very much appreciated. Unfortunatelly thats not a complete solution. The edges have to be tested against all the adjacent mesh faces. That means it has to include all 3 neighbouring faces per each face in staklo mesh. That is why I included and merg…

[image] Andres: The section detail First the general case of this: any mesh > any chain of faces [as windows] based on FF connectivity and a rproper rule is very easy via code - via Recursion in most of cases (but you said … blah, blah). That said the R Mesh Class provides directly 7 out of t…

Are you after the edge normals? (as bisectors of the adjacent face normals) Here’s a little script I made a while back to demonstrate this. [image] mesh_adjacentFaces.gh (31.9 KB) See also this older thread: [image] Mesh Curvature confusion Grasshopper Thanks Rolf, th…

[image] maje90: am1 re2.gh (161.7 KB) Thanks Riccardo, that did the job! [image] PeterFotiadis: Second the detail is wrong: Yes, the detail is uncomplete and simplified for ease of communication. [image] PeterFotiadis: The solution for the latter is to mastermind torsion free bea…

[image] Andres: 5x3.5x3.2m Well … for such an ultra mini thingy why bother with “adventurous” Topologies? Size always dictates a lot of things you know and a mini Size points to some extreme simplicity (kinda attempting to tune a Fiat 500 - a good car for what it is, mind). Think more of an…

Hey @Pfotiad0 - Great explanation, do you by chance have the example script demonstrated here? Creating a doubly curved panelized surface and the connecting panels must be torsion-free faces…which i believe you have solved in this iteration. Here’s the link to my situation: Triangular Blanket Extru…

[image] Tristan Ahlquist: which i believe you have solved i Indeed but the bad news is that the C#'s that do that are strictly internal (as anything that implicitly or explicitly is related to real life). Plus I’m far and away from base. When I’ll be back I’ll see what sort of C# help stuff …

Ah understood, no worries at! Any help is appreciated.

Just ran back to this topic by accident. Thought that it would be interesting to share some pics :wink: [IMG_20230612_200301] [IMG_20230607_163706] [IMG_20230520_122952]
