Abstract:
Herein we examined the first step for constructing an emergent design system capable of generating diverse behaviors. We proposed method to generate diverse dynamic behaviors. The form generation method in the emergent design system initially generated diverse two-dimensional forms, and forms with various features were then produced by changing the composite ratio k, which is a system parameter. Then these forms were converted into two-dimensional mass point systems composed of mass points, springs, and dampers. The behaviors of the two-dimensional mass point systems were analyzed by the Runge-Kutta method to examine the effects of applying external forces such as loads and vibrations on the various behaviors such as rotational movement. Our results indicated that diverse forms with different displacement tracks of the center of gravity are also generated under the same mechanical conditions
