AM joint studies II. As promised in my recent pos AM joint studies II.

As promised in my recent post here is a small update on the 3d-printed joints for a structural model of the Art Tower Mito (Ibaraki/Japan). The Grasshopper-Script now takes every joint geometry and places it on a grid. This arrangement goes directly into the Slicer and is also the layout on the build plate (no further nesting). The orientation is a bit tricky. For now there's just an "average normal vector" for every joint which orients towards the z-axis. This serves the purpose for now.

Geometry was created using Rhino/Grasshopper.
Toolpath generated with PrusaSlicer.
Rendered in Blender/Cycles.

AM joint studies. Continuing on exploring the cap AM joint studies.

Continuing on exploring the capabilities of 3d-printed joints. This model is generated fully parametric through a grasshopper script, with only a curve/line network as input. A set for a complete structure is easy to generate, even if every joint is different. The parts are directly nested on the build plate. What a wonder of the digital chain. The whole structure is following soon.

Geometry was created using Rhino/Grasshopper.

Gridshell joint analysis. The topic in this summe Gridshell joint analysis.

The topic in this summer term's computational design course is - again - timber gridshells. But this time we're focusing on joints instead of formfinding. There will be some full scale experiments in the next weeks which will lead to a built gridshell, hopefully.

For now we have a look at some reference projects - and this awesome models built by our students. Exciting!

Someone likes to destroy spaghetti bridges 😀 At Someone likes to destroy spaghetti bridges 😀

At a span of 1m this bridge collapsed at 5.5kg - quite impressive!
Cleaning up the mess afterwards was my punishment for having fun...

Just the gyroid minimal surface. But this one is Just the gyroid minimal surface.

But this one is not so much about recreating the geometry. It's geometry nodes in Blender again, but this time not a mesh or a volume. Instead I'm utilizing the pointcloud rendering, which is pretty damn fast. The base is a simple cubic grid where individual points are switched on or off in order to display the shape/function.

The grid in this picture has a size of 150x150x150 (638K points displayed). A grid of 500x500x500 did also work very well (23.6M points displayed).

Cube based fractal (snowflake-ish). This time I t Cube based fractal (snowflake-ish).

This time I tried creating a 3D-fractal with geometry nodes, which basically works very well. A cube gets copied to the center points of every face repeatedly. Hence they're somewhat "sunk in" each other. I'd love to have more than 5 iterations, but Blender keeps on crashing when I attempt to. It's also occupying a lot of RAM with the 5 iterations above only with evaluating the node setup, not for rendering itself. Next time I might look into using a pointcloud rendering approach (handling the fractal like a volume of voxels).

Mount for a taillight (Trelock LS-414). Just need Mount for a taillight (Trelock LS-414).

Just needed a proper mount for the new taillights of my bike. Somehow this escalated quickly into giving the model a proper render...
