Architects need to respect physics in Nature
Frei Otto - People the OG of Physics based Tensile Membranes. He did what he loved. His interest in Tensile Membrane structures.
Buckminster Fuller - People created a solid tensegrity models for his Hexagonal shaped structures.
Dynamic Relaxation Techniques is what used by Kangaroo under the hood.
3 Important Concepts in Kangaroo
Forces
Push or Pull that can be applied to the geometries.
Constraints
Rules that would limit the behaviour of the topology
Goals
Ways to interpret your design outcomes. How much, what and when are kind of the stuff that you need the forces and constraint to result to.
For 3D Geometries, Kangaroo always needs Meshes
Mesh topology is very convoluted. To extract vertices is a long game.
