Introduction

In the beginning of the course, we started to make experiments with different materials. What we were interested is the tensile struc-ture because it has the potential to create specific forms with tension. Therefore, we optimized all the experiments as three main ones with different types of cuts, but follow-ing the same strategy and set up in order to see the logic behind the structure.

Strategy

According to the fixing point, it can be adjusted up and down in one dimension. Once more and more fixing points are attached to the frame, we find that they can find their best position on their own becasue of the self-supporting system of the tensile structure.

Analysis

Based on previous experiments, we have better understanding of how the tensile structure works in the 3D dimension. In order to have broad learn-ing from it, we bring the same concept into com-puter program, construct more optimizing struc-ture (each point is fixed to five different sticks), and make an animation (the structure is com-pressed and streched by the time) to see how the cuts are performed and varied from each step.

Operation

After the 3 experiments of our models, we take the idea of verticle cut as our fundamental digital model because it has more clear and performing logic. In terms of the operation of our digital model, we have 5 rails as the basic tracks for the movement of each points that it can move in one dimension flexibly.
