Smooth wavy sphere

hey guys , any idea on how to create somehting like this in grasshopper please? thanks

Perlin noise

Describe this force field type pattern please

A little bit late at the party but could be helpful for others. To make a smooth border, I use Mesh Edges to get the edge. [image] You can change the distance and the type of transition. You can offset without making solid. Here using Pufferfish plugin. But could be done easily with legacy components. So you’ll have 2 meshes. [image] As these 2 meshes have same topology linking them is easy. Just use that. [image] Then glue the whole thing [image] Using this you don’…

hi thanks,but still couldnt find the exact values to get that simpler wavy form !

i want to create something like this exactly

Hello
Noise is not easy to control
Look at this discussion it will give you more control

Difficulty in water ripple interference

Hello like @Edr pointed this seems to be more related to a noise or more simply a scalar field. If you want the points you can use this a tool that outputs some Scalar Field (weight at each point of space) using some points and weights at this point. Not sure it is the best here but Inverse Distance Weighting (Nautilus plugin) gives some result. [image] I internalized the points but it seems better to use pipeline and use points from Rhino. I use 3 points. test inverse distance weight.gh …

i tried doing your script on a sphere and nothing happened @laurent_delrieu any idea why please?

Ok it works here

Look at units, you have a sphere of 250 unit radius
test other power value
No need to multiply the weights before the tools, after yes for the sinus
I prefer to use Mesh Sphere X, it is fastest than remeshing but you need to weld it.
Icosphere could be good also

Other looks using Zig Zag from Nautilus

I am not sure you tried too much the noise
