In a graduate CAD class I prototyped a method for automatically positioning components in an assembly using a simulated annealing algorithm. To do this I created a simple voxel-based solid modeling environment in Matlab. You can see a demo here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0L1OKj12I4>. (If I were to do it again, I would have used OpenSCAD + improved coding skills and gotten a bit further!). Unfortunately your link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0L1OKj12I4) is not assessable from Germany, because of: Unfortunately, this video is not available in your country because it could contain music from UMG, for which we could not agree on conditions of use with GEMA. One reason to use open-source music. ;( 2015-03-27 15:55 GMT+01:00 Peter Falke <stempeldergeschichte@googlemail.com> : > > - Deliverables: > - *Create a simple hardware selection tool (build into the > interactive library tool)* > - *Create .scad representations for all nuts, bolts, and washers in > a leading hardware supplier's catalog* > > > *You probably should be aware of BOLTS:* > > *http://www.bolts-library.org/en/index.html > <http://www.bolts-library.org/en/index.html>* > > 2015-03-27 14:27 GMT+01:00 mitch <mtchkll@gmail.com>: > >> Thanks Tim, I'll look into that. >> I started a project log here: >> https://github.com/mitchdraft/scaddergories/wiki/Project-Status-Monitor >> >> >> >> -- >> View this message in context: >> http://forum.openscad.org/another-GSoC-15-Student-Introduction-MCAD-Form-parameterization-tp11981p12244.html >> Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com. >> >> _______________________________________________ >> OpenSCAD mailing list >> Discuss@lists.openscad.org >> http://lists.openscad.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_lists.openscad.org >> > > > > -- > stempeldergeschichte@googlemail.com <karsten@rohrbach.de> > > P.S.

Schade und ironisch, you'll miss my German language pun, the song was "Allein" (sounds like "align") by Eric Prydz. I removed the music, you should be able to view it now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0L1OKj12I4 -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/another-GSoC-15-Student-Introduction-MCAD-Form-parameterization-tp11981p12250.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Bolts looks great, thanks for the link! -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/another-GSoC-15-Student-Introduction-MCAD-Form-parameterization-tp11981p12251.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
