Pattern Simulation Animation
Various patterns relevant to our design concept are tested using Houdini FX and its intergrated physics simulators. The animations bellow present the results of the bending simulations when material properties are applied to the geometry.
Simulation 01 is a basic pattern that allows the understanding of the bending principles. the bending points are distributed in an exponential manner, with zero being the midpoint.
Following the logic from above Simulation 02 shows that the voronoid pattern can provide different bending results based on the testellation of the pattern. In this particular instace, voronoid shapes are applied in a gradient where the closer to the midpoint the larger the concentrattion of smaller voronoids. This testellation provides a controllable bending point.
Simulation 03 depicts a diamond pattern with its long side arranged vertical to the bending midpoint curve. Hence, bending is restricted.
Simulation 04 shows the same patterns arranged with its lond side parallel to the bending midpoint curve. Consequently, bending is allowed to a greater degree than simulation 03. It follows that the pattern orientation affects the bending properties of the material.
Simulation 05 is a combination of the above experimentations. The voronoid pattern is concentrated towards the bending point, which provides durability and strengthier connection with the panel
