I am attempting to create a script that is able to optimize and nest geometry within 3D space. An example below: [ARC574 Notes] The geometry used in the simulation will be 3d-scanned watertight meshes. Actual questions: Could you please point me in the right direction with regards to what libr…

Did you see this topic? [image] 3D print nesting Kangaroo I set the Threshold to 0.01 and Tolerance to 0.001. I would start the solver with low strength (5) on both collisions. Using a Grab component, you can drag a part if it causes too much problem. Once the parts ha…

Thank you Martin, That looks like it fits the bill. I did try it but it was not what I am looking for (unfortunately). It is prohibitive computationally and works super slow. I am going to have to change course and pursue a 3D tetris type model. [image] How to include Galapagos in …

Please internalise the relevant inputs by right clicking the component and then ‘Internalise data’. [image] [image] I put some spheres inside your box and the rest of the definition works fine, more or less… [image] [image] 3d_nesting.gh (23.8 KB)

Is there a way including a constrain in it, so that (although my objects are complex 3d shapes) it is optimized only in xy direction? Aldo I see this post is one year old. Is there any development in this field?

Did you see this topic: [image] 3D print nesting Kangaroo i’ve revisited the collider method using the part centrelines. this is much faster and works for more parts than the rigidbody method. with the zombie solver i’m getting a valid solution for 100 parts in under 30 …

This is not what I want. The image shows it is optimized without any constraints. Martin Siegrist via McNeel Forum < notifications@mcneel.discoursemail.com > ezt írta (időpont: 2025. jan. 2., Csü 7:15):

Alas it is completely new for me.

Do you have any experience in Grasshopper? Can you share some of your objects?

yes I have a couple of years experience in Grasshopper, however I am not a programmer just an architect.
