Create second component

[FlorisWL]

Create second component: Solve with graphic static.

This is so to say the main component that solves the truss structure using graphic statics.

Inputs: (all form diagram)

• joints
• members
• ext. forces,
• support forces

Outputs:

• forces in members
• lines force diagram

Steps:

• [x] Create the component
• [x] Create the right class structure
• [x] Test
• [x] Done

---

UPDATE: We are going to make this component independent of other component. So combine the created component with the relevant functionality of the first (solve global) component.

Inputs:

• Start Force Diagram
• Scaling Factor Forces
• Joints
• Members Start Indices
• Members End Indices
• Force: Indices
• Force: Magnitudes
• Force: Rotations
• Support: Indices
• Support: Horizontal Constraints
• Support: Rotations
• Display Unified Diagram
• Display Force Diagram
• Display Joint Force Diagrams
• Display Numerical Values

Outputs: Same as Solve Member Forces now

'Intermediate outputs':

• Supports Form (Lines)
• External Forces Form (Lines)
• Supports Force (Lines)
• External Forces Force (Lines)

& maybe also use later:

• Scaling Factor Force (double/int?)
• Starting Force Diagram (Point3d)

Additional stuff to fix:

• [x] how to handle 2-member joints without external force: allow forces on the 2-member joints to go to 0, and allow 2-member joints in general. -> forces in these members will be 0 in both cases. Also make sure no error occurs in the generation of the rectangles for the unified diagram in case of 0-force members.
• [x] make sure external forces are outside of structure, not inside a form polygon. COMMENT: I implemented the SetExternalForcesForAngle function in the Joint class. It's not a watertight function, but that's simply not possible. It places the ForceLineForAngles line in between 2 adjacent members that are the furthest apart, because this is logically the outside of the structure. Maybe, since it will not always work, give the user the option to use this.
• [x] Improve on display options:
  • Boolean: show joint force diagrams. Includes locations (or some way to derive them) of bases of joint force diagrams, for numbering purposes. Add this as an output (Locations Joint Force Diagrams)
  • Slider: spacing joint force diagrams. A slider that scales the spacing between the joint force diagrams.
  • Boolean: show force diagram. Simply don't compute the overall force diagram is set to false.
  • Boolean: show unified diagram. Since this is the only 'display option', we will replace the int input with a boolean input.
  • Boolean: show numerical values.

closing it, since it's all done.
