Funnel-web is a membrane simulation tool that facilitates diverse and complex outcomes for artistic design exploration in Grasshopper. It enables a high level of customisation by allowing any and all vertices in the simulated membrane to be either pinned in place or subjected to specific force vectors.
It is a work in progress. Planned additions to functionality include an option for automatic seaming of coincident vertices, allowing Funnel-web membrane components to properly run in parallel, and provision for input of vertices in forms other than an m by n grid. Funnel-web is not designed for engineering purposes.
Funnel-web also includes a simple force-directed graph component for graphically balanced display of nodes connected by edges.
