Rossler Attractor Python Script in Grasshopper3d Posted on 22/11/2012
Looking more into Python, the syntax and how you can use for loops, Rhinocommon and math within the GH Python Component, I decided to write and share this animated Python script of a Rossler attractor. This particular attractor lies in the context of particle kinematics within chemical reactions. This system is defined by three non-linear ordinary differential equations originally studied by Otto RÜssler. I find it to be, an extremely interesting and minimally beautiful system, mainly due to the particle’s easily observed movement in the Cartesian 3D space.
Thy python code looks something like this: #”Rossler Attractor Grasshopper Python Component” #Written by Marios Tsiliakos on 22/11/2012 #Based on the equations provided by Paul Bourke http://paulbourke.net #Rossler Attractor by Marios Tsiliakos is licensed under a #Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License. #Based on work at http://www.digitalsubstance.wordpress.com. #Imports from math import * import _random as rnd import Rhino # Subfunction def Rossler(it): #random number r=rnd.Random(Seed) r0 = r.random()*0.1 # set the constants a = 0.15 + r0 b = 0.2 – r0
