Detail Approach
Step 1: Initiate a new Revit file and establish a rectangular array of cylindrical components using Dynamo. This can be accomplished by integrating methods discussed in the Attractor Logic videos and the instance that involves tower heights. For instance, I start by producing a point matrix to position the cylinders, followed by flattening it through the utilization of cross-product lacing.
Step 2: Generate a pebble point. Utilize this pebble point as the attractor node and calculate the distance between every point on the grid and the pebble point.
Step 3: Modify the cylinder heights to mimic ripples. Each cylinder's height is determined by employing the Cylinder.PointByRadius node in Dynamo.
Step 4: Generate Revit elements corresponding to the Dynamo. Import the cylinder mass into the Revit project from the Library and employ the FamilyInstance.ByPoint node in Dynamo to position an instance at every grid point. Finally, adjust the wave amplitude, quantity, and base offset, as well as the cylinder's height and radius, to guarantee that the ripples are distinctly visible.
