Libra
Libra - A TOPOLOGY GRAMMAR FOR GENERATING STRUCTURAL TOPOLOGIES
Libra is a Grasshopper plug-in, which implements a topology grammar for generating structural topologies. Starting from an incomplete network, namely (a) the geometric boundaries that a network grows into and (b) the applied external forces, Libra operates an incremental transformative process that allows the transition to a complete network. In other words, the incremental elimination of interim forces in the network. At every intermediate step the network is in static equilibrium (interim when interim forces are still present, or global when no interim forces exist).
