## Examples

```python
from anastruct import SystemElements
import numpy as np

ss = SystemElements()
element_type = 'truss'

# Create 2 towers
width = 6
span = 30
k = 5e3

# create triangles
y = np.arange(1, 10) * np.pi
x = np.cos(y) * width * 0.5
x -= x.min()

for length in [0, span]:
x_left_column = np.ones(y[::2].shape) * x.min() + length
x_right_column = np.ones(y[::2].shape[0] + 1) * x.max() + length

# add triangles
ss.add_element_grid(x + length, y, element_type=element_type)
# add vertical elements
ss.add_element_grid(x_left_column, y[::2], element_type=element_type)
ss.add_element_grid(x_right_column, np.r_[y[0], y[1::2], y[-1]], element_type=element_type)

ss.add_support_spring(
node_id=ss.find_node_id(vertex=[x_left_column[0], y[0]]),
translation=2,
k=k)
ss.add_support_spring(
node_id=ss.find_node_id(vertex=[x_right_column[0], y[0]]),
translation=2,
k=k)

# add top girder
ss.add_element_grid([0, width, span, span + width], np.ones(4) * y.max(), EI=10e3)

# Add stability elements at the bottom.
ss.add_truss_element([[0, y.min()], [width, y.min()]])
ss.add_truss_element([[span, y.min()], [span + width, y.min()]])

for el in ss.element_map.values():
# apply wind load on elements that are vertical
if np.isclose(np.sin(el.ai), 1):
ss.q_load(
q=1,
element_id=el.id,
direction='x'
)

ss.show_structure()
ss.solve()
ss.show_displacement(factor=2)
ss.show_bending_moment()

# Add a fixed support at node 1.
ss.add_support_fixed(node_id=1)

# Add a rotational spring support at node 4.
ss.add_support_spring(node_id=4, translation=3, k=4000)

# Add loads.
ss.point_load(Fx=30, node_id=2)

# Solve
ss.solve()

# Get visual results.
