Dynamic relaxation

Dynamic relaxation is a numerical method, which, among other things, can be used do "" for cable and fabric structures. The aim is to find a geometry where all forces are in equilibrium. In the past this was done by direct modelling, using hanging chains and weights (see Gaudi), or by using soap films, which have the property of adjusting to find a "minimal surface".
