Optimization of Structural Joints

Hi,

I am working on tubular joints and I am trying to find the optimal design to enhance durability for Y-branch joints under load. I’m taking into account factors such as angle, sharpness at the intersections, wall thickness etc. Can anyone recommend a plugin suitable for this optimization task? Additionally, if RHINO is the appropriate software for this task, any suggestions or insights regarding approaches would be greatly appreciated.

Please find attached a picture of the joint I’m working on. Especially, I want to optimize the sharpness at the intersections as marked on the picture.

Hi Furkan,

Rhino is the right too for this topic.

You can use Kangaroo and Karamba plugins for grasshopper.

Cheers

Thank you so much Grzegorz! I will try them.
