| summary |
We present the Dynamic Aggregation model: a form-finding tool to generate volumes with an active interior from a set of surfaces. We offer a novel approach to form-finding by combining two models: Particle-Spring Systems and Discrete Aggregation. Dynamic Aggregation allows the designer to generate emergent results while granting real-time control of the general topology in an interactive physics system. To do so, we built our model from a graph structure composed of Nodes and Links with a local notion of orientation. It allows the model to aggregate, bifurcate, link, and unlink continuously, starting from an initial Node configuration until reaching a target surface, while keeping the Node organization in the process. We test the model in two abstract scenarios and three architectural typologies with distinct topological and geometric features to display differentiation, adaptation, and control capabilities. |
