Abstract:
We introduce a novel PDE that can align conjugate stress and curvature nets for shell form-finding. Users can adjust the grid using a reference grid. This allows users to design a metal-glass grid shell that can withstand gravity with bending-free axial forces and be covered by planar quadrilateral glass panels.
