Main features and characteristics

The main features and characteristics of the program are the following:

  • Reads model from a text file
  • Has a basic interface for drawing the model
  • Calculates nodal displacements, element forces and constraint reactions
  • Exports the analysis results in txt format
  • Supports only nodal loads (no elemental loads)
  • Supports hinges (rotational releases) at the elements' ends
  • Very good documentation within the source code, as it was mainly created for teaching purposes
