The main variables are normal forces in truss elements, and support reactions. The code generates simple plots like this on \n\n![fig example 1](examples/Example_1_forces.png)\n\n\n## Why?\n\nThe purpose of this repo is to provide an example of a computational implementation of the Force Method for 2D truss structures. The code is oriented to undergraduate Civil Engineering students, in particular students at [Facultad de Ingeniería, UdelaR](https://www.fing.edu.uy/) in Uruguay.\n\n## How to use it?\n\n 1. download and unzip the code https://github.com/jorgepz/Force-Method-Solver/archive/refs/heads/main.zip\n 1. open GNU-Octave or Matlab and move to the `examples` folder and run one of the scripts\n\n## How it works?\n\nThe mechanics of the code and the theory of the method are based on the textbook of the course Resistencia de Materiales 2, publicly available at [this repo](https://gitlab.fing.edu.uy/jorgepz/libroResMat2/).\n\n## Who?\n\nBy the moment this code is being developed by [Jorge Pérez Zerpa](https://www.fing.edu.uy/~jorgepz/), but any contribution is welcome, by forking this repo and crontributing your changes after. Please look for open issues if you want to solve currently open tasks/problems.\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjorgepz%2Fforce-method-solver","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjorgepz%2Fforce-method-solver","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjorgepz%2Fforce-method-solver/lists"}
