Surface Component based on Gaussian Curvature

by Tuğrul Yazar | December 22, 2011 11:55

This experiment is based on a traditional surface-component definition. However, the variation of components is associated with Gaussian curvature. We just control the subdivision and a multiplier value. Results are interesting in as an educational tool to explain NURBS surface curvature and its utilization for Design Geometry. Different surface shapes generate exciting results. Of course, this could be much improved by recognizing positive and negative curvature values, (probably only accepting positive ones maybe). The grasshopper definition can be downloaded here [2011_12_22_gauss][1].
