MESH TENSION AND FUNICULAR STRUCTURES WILL BE EXPLORED.īEFORE WE BEGIN! Please install all necessary programs and plug-ins before continuing with this tutorial. PHYSICSTENSILE STRUCTUREEXPLORATION OF TENSILE STRUCTURE THROUGH THE USE OF DIGITAL SIMULATIONS.

e simulations will show how diﬀerent forms of meshes will react to diﬀerent inputs placed in the Kangaroo Physics Engine, creating various possible forms. In this particular tutorial, we will be exploring tension caused by gravity and spring forces that are being applied onto meshes. ough Kangaroo can simulate physics on an object, it is only limited to Meshes and cannot measure the exact amount of force being applied that could transfer into real life possibilities. Kangaroo Physics will allow you to run diﬀerent dynamic simulations for diﬀerent design purposes by using particular forces such as Unary force, Bending force and Spring forces that are applied onto particles or meshes. It can be used for structural analysis with real-time visual feedback as you change various inputs such as the speed, stability, or strength.
