Unit of length(strength) and load(weighting)

[DanielPiker]

Units used in grasshopper components

If your Rhino units are set to metres, then Load is in Newtons, Strength for Length goals (springs) is EA/L (with Young’s modulus in Pascals). ‘Magnetic Snap’ is not intended as a quantitative simulation of magnetic behaviour - it just acts like a zero length spring that activates when the points are below a certain distance apart. I go into more details about the dynamics here: It’s useful to consider this in the context of what you are trying to do - whether it is form-finding, geometric l…
