Defining the hinge joint constraint. #82

Description

First thanks for sharing such an amazing FEA project on GitHub.

I went through the latest document and the examples, but can't find any instruction on how to set up the hinge constraint between structural elements. It would be much appreciated if you can share one simple example code on how to define the hinge joint.

Many thanks.

I Apology, can't change the label to other categories rather than "bug".

I'll add the example to examples section also the code for HingLink is not tested yet. Usage is simple, simply create a HingLink, then add two nodes that you want connect them and finally add the element into the Model, VirtualConstraint is also a MpcElement, take a look at documentation here: https://bfenet.readthedocs.io/en/latest/elements/mpcelements/vconstraint/index.html

Can you please validate the HingLink result and see if it have any bug etc.?

Right now we are working on another part of code Thanks
