The Application Of Plant Growth Algorithm In Digital Architecture Design

Nearly twenty years, the social rapid development, people’s lifestyle hasexperienced tremendous changes,which is mainly attributed to the rapid developmentof digital technology, whose application has come into different fields of the society.So is architecture design. Architectures today are more eco-friendly and peoplebelieve that they should be more nature-oriented. Such as wind erosion cave, karstscave. In terms of the large variety of plants, each of them has a good structure tosustain stress and natural ways to develop quality. Thus, it would be able to findcertain ways to link plants with architectures through working on Plant GrowthAlgorithm, getting the computer technology better and more directly involved inarchitecture design.In addition to concept design, structure plan, Plant Growth Algorithmapplied inparametric design can also be used in strategy enhancement and structure analysis ofarchitecture design, during which process it can analyze the strength point andstructure joint of various plants, making it more convenient to grasp the connectionbetween plant growing system and that of the architecture. Therefore, thereasonability and scientificness of architecture design can be improved.In the process of learning the basic knowledge of plant growth, the thesis, first ofall, works out the controlling system of it, looking for different ways of algorithmabout plant growing mode, finding out the growing system of the new type of plant.Then, we use Grasshopper and Vbscript programming tools under Rhino4.0L-system modeling for designing, to get more construction scheme based on rich andcolorful plant growth mechanism.To make architectural design more reasonable,through the finite element analysis platform "Hyperworks" topological optimizationalgorithm, we can analyze the model of mechanical flow. Finally, we can get a natural, graceful architectural design scheme with reasonable force and material saving.
