New Algorithm Lets Architects Design Stunning Curved Structures in Minutes

A new NURBS-based algorithm is revolutionizing gridshell design by enabling faster, smoother, and more flexible shape-finding. What once required 90 hours of GPU time now takes just 90 minutes on a standard CPU, unlocking bold architectural possibilities. A Faster Way to Shape Lightweight Free-Form Structures A researcher at the University of Tokyo and a structural [...]
