Project Nucleus is an interesting program that has been around for a while now. I wanted to do a quick post to bring it to the attention of our readers. Nucleus is a technology preview from Autodesk that integrates the Nucleus simulation engine from Maya into Revit and Project Vasari. It allows designers to experiment with "form-finding" by simulating a wide range of physical phenomena in real time such as gravity, wind and collisions, generating free form shapes that would be just about impossible otherwise.
-The current technology preview will expire on December 31, 2011
If you would like more info I have included a few videos demonstrating Nucleus from both Autodesk and Zach Kron after the jump...

All in all, energy management for small businesses and small buildings, particularly if they are outdated or old, is important too. In fact, since small businesses are often tied to smaller resources and tools, energy management becomes even more important. Now small businesses can save money from having to continuously rely on contractors for energy management results as well as overall energy consumption and costs. Energy efficiency software Review
