A Python library for structural analysis of 2D and 3D frames and trusses, providing tools for defining structures, applying loads, and analyzing results.
StructPy
- Python
- Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Structural Engineering
- Civil Engineering, Design for Manufacturing (DfM), Finite Element Method (FEM), Mechanical Engineer, Mechanics, Product Design, Product Development, Simulation, Structural Engineering
Features:
- 2D frame analysis,3D frame analysis,truss analysis,static linear analysis,member loads (distributed,point),nodal loads,support conditions,calculation of reactions,deflections,internal forces (shear,moment,axial),plotting of structures and results
Pricing:
- Free
- Open-source, relatively straightforward for frame and truss analysis, good for educational purposes, allows programmatic definition of structures.
- Primarily focused on linear static analysis, less feature-rich than commercial FEA software or OpenSeesPy for complex nonlinear or dynamic analyses, development activity appears to be limited (last significant commit 2020).
Best for:
- Students and engineers needing a simple Python tool for linear static analysis of 2D and 3D frame and truss structures for educational or preliminary design purposes.
