Input length of chamfers 'Lc': Set the length of chamfers ate the plate edges.Input thickness of platesВ 'Tp': Set the plate thickness.Works with closed or open meshes and with triangles and planar quads. Input MeshВ 'M': Connect your Rhino Mesh.The 'TPS_MiterJoints' component creates 3D plates which are connected with miter joints: Output face points 'Fp': Face center pointsДЈ.Output dihedral angles 'Da':В Edge dihedral angles.Output edge points 'Ep':В Edge mid points.This is important for the joining and fabrication of plates, depending on the material, assembly and production methods. The 'TPS_AnalyzeMesh' component can display essential information, such as the dihedral angles* between neighboring plates. To swap U/V, use the _dir command in Rhino and select 'swap UV'Дў. Input division 'U' and 'V': Set the division in the U and V direction.If you want to use Grasshopper Breps, you will have to deconstruct them first into individual surfaces.

Input Surface 'S': Connect your Rhino Surface.The resulting meshes can be, but are not necessarily flat-foldable as in Origami. Note that this tool is meant for discrete (timber) plate structures, built from separate pieces which are connected with joints. The 'TPS_DiamondMesh' component lets you quickly generate diamond folds (also called Yoshimura folds) based on freeform surfaces. The current version TPS 0.3В contains four components:ДЎ.
