Analysis of helix angle in loop surface


Grasshopper helped me plot the difference in angles between curve direction and curvature direction along the loop surface. Seems to start around 30° and reach 0° at surface mid point. It flips over to 180° and then decreases another 30° to 150° during the second half. Interesting! This would indicate a linear decrease/increase of the twist amount (measured as the helix angle). I think this pretty much solved the puzzle...

  1. Hi, thank you for the information about GH

    I tried tapeworm twisting, and I want to ask, how to make the tapeworm twisting in to loop surface?

    thank you
