Euler Station - 2 Units

Few scientists have influenced the world as Leonard Euler. As a tribute to his work, the following model is proposed for a train/metro/bus station where the heights are given by an exponential function.

As a first step, the base curve was created with input from the user

Then, a second level curve was created with an exponential height increase.

To model a roof, an overhang with exponential height increase was created

Curves were placed in the Dynamo model to simulate the ribs with are the structural elements in this complex arquitecture

Points were made in the ribs in order to facilitate panel placement

Finally, the 3 point cylinder and 4 point panel with opening adaptive components were placed in the model
