Sputnik Series is an ensemble of additive-manufactured node concepts for the realization of space frames. A custom python script was developed which provides besides geometry also information about the structural behaviour through Finite-Element analysis and evaluates the printing volume and printing duration.
//01_structural optimization by implementing ribbing structures
//02_minimizing of the printing duration by reducing the nodes volume
//03_formal exploration of complex structures by using computational design tools
