Plywood Strips twisting and bending simulation

Hi everyone, I have been looking into bending and twisting plywood strips and trying to simulate their behaviour in Kangaroo. I have set up the script that uses ‘hand points’ that are supposed to represent the hand movement when twisting and bending the strips in real life. At the moment I am struggling with getting a good approximation of the hierarchy of strengths of different goals to be the most true to real life. Has anyone done anything similar in the past and could help me find the most…
