Graphical Rapid Analysis of Structures
Program (GRASP) in Python
Here's a Python implementation of a basic structural analysis program with graphical
capabilities. This example uses matplotlib for visualization and numpy for calculations.
python
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.widgets import Button
class StructuralAnalysis:
def __init__(self):
self.nodes = {}
self.elements = {}
self.forces = {}
self.supports = {}
self.fig, self.ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(10, 8))
plt.subplots_adjust(bottom=0.2)
# Setup GUI buttons
self.setup_ui()
def setup_ui(self):
ax_add_node = plt.axes([0.1, 0.05, 0.15, 0.075))
ax_add_element = plt.axes([0.3, 0.05, 0.15, 0.075))
ax_add_force = plt.axes([0.5, 0.05, 0.15, 0.075))
ax_add_support = plt.axes([0.7, 0.05, 0.15, 0.075))
ax_analyze = plt.axes([0.4, 0.15, 0.2, 0.075))
self.btn_add_node = Button(ax_add_node, 'Add Node')
self.btn_add_element = Button(ax_add_element, 'Add Element')
self.btn_add_force = Button(ax_add_force, 'Add Force')
self.btn_add_support = Button(ax_add_support, 'Add Support')
self.btn_analyze = Button(ax_analyze, 'Analyze Structure')
self.btn_add_node.on_clicked(self.add_node_interactive)
self.btn_add_element.on_clicked(self.add_element_interactive)
self.btn_add_force.on_clicked(self.add_force_interactive)
self.btn_add_support.on_clicked(self.add_support_interactive)
