Kangaroo

What is “Kangaroo” ?

Kangaroo is a Live Physics engine for interactive simulation, optimization and form-finding directly within Grasshopper. Kangaroo is a particle-based simulation add0n and is good at simulating elastic materials like springs.

For more detail, refer official documentation here.

Pipeline

There are 3 phases to use grasshopper:

• initial setup
• simulation
• visualization

Components

• Kangaroo :    Simulator in Kangaroo
• Spring From Line :    Make springs from lines
• UForce :    Make unary force at certain point with certain direction

Applications

• spring
• bend
• plaw
• equalize
• sphere collide
• laplacian smoothing
• planariza
• unroll
• remesh
