# Ticket: Implement the static solver for the `truss2d` network engine ## Context `truss2d` is a compact C++17 structural-analysis engine for planar networks of two-force members on elastic spring supports. The framework around the numerical core is already implemented: the data model and validation, dense linear algebra, text parser, report writer, demo CLI, and a smoke test. The static solver itself is intentionally stubbed. It returns zero-valued results, so the engine does not carry load or satisfy equilibrium. The project is at **`/opt/truss2d`** in the build image. ## Your Task Implement the four member functions in **`/opt/truss2d/src/solver.cpp`** (declared in `include/truss2d/solver.hpp`): - `DenseMatrix StaticSolver::element_stiffness_global(std::size_t e) const` - `DenseMatrix StaticSolver::assemble_system(const std::vector<bool>& active) const` - `std::vector<double> StaticSolver::prestrain_force(const std::vector<bool>& active) const` - `SolveResult StaticSolver::solve() const` Do not change public headers or signatures. You should only need to edit `src/solver.cpp`, using the existing `Model`, `DenseMatrix`, and `solve_spd` support code. This is not just a classical pin-jointed linear truss. The solver must handle unilateral members, installed strain, thermal strain, finite spring supports, and the small-displacement initial-stress effect of taut members. ## Governing Model Each node has two translational degrees of freedom, `x` then `y`. Each element connects two nodes and acts as a two-force member in its own axis. The solver uses small-displacement kinematics: axial extension is the first-order change of end separation projected onto the member axis. ### Member Response Each member has a linear-elastic axial response based on its material, area, and undeformed length. The `kind` controls which signs of total axial force it may carry: - `Bar`: carries either tension or compression and always participates. - `Cable`: tension-only. If the consistent state would place it in compression, it goes slack and contributes no stiffness or installed load. - `Strut`: compression-only. If the consistent state would place it in tension, it separates and contributes no stiffness or installed load. The sign convention for `SolveResult::axial_forces` is positive in tension and negative in compression. Dropped unilateral members must report exactly zero force and zero utilization. ### Installed Strain `Element::prestrain` is a mechanical lack-of-fit strain. `Element::alpha` and `Element::dT` describe a thermal strain contribution. Combine the mechanical and thermal installed strains consistently to first order before computing the installed axial force. A member manufactured too long for its joints pushes its ends apart and is initially compressive. A member manufactured too short pulls its ends together and is initially tensile. The same physical convention applies to thermal expansion and contraction. ### Initial-Stress Stiffness An active member carrying axial force also changes the tangent stiffness for relative motion transverse to its axis. Tension stiffens the transverse mode; compression softens it. This initial-stress contribution: - uses the member's current total axial force, not just the installed component; - acts only for participating members; - does not alter the recovered axial force itself; - vanishes for rigid translation of both ends and for relative motion along the member axis. The transverse stiffness of a taut member depends on the force it carries, and the force depends on the displacement. A single linear solve made from an arbitrary assumed member force is not, by itself, an equilibrium. Find the state in which the assumed member forces, the displacements they produce, and the forces recovered from those displacements all coincide. The graded models are well posed and have a unique consistent state. The matrix helpers report the ordinary elastic behavior only: the single-member helper reports one member's ordinary elastic stiffness, and the assembly helper adds the ordinary elastic stiffness of participating members together with the spring-support stiffness. The force-dependent transverse effect belongs only to the equilibrium solved by `solve()`, not to those helper outputs. ### Spring Supports There are no exact fixed supports. Each support is a grounded linear spring at a node along a unit direction stored by the model. It resists only the displacement component along that direction and produces no reaction perpendicular to it. Two nonparallel springs on one node act like a two-dimensional elastic support; one spring is a skew roller with finite compliance. The support reaction reported by `solve()` is the force applied by the spring to the structure, so it opposes the spring extension. A spring support may also **settle**: its grounded end is held at a prescribed offset (the `settlement` value, measured along the spring's direction). The spring then stores its stretch RELATIVE to that offset , i.e. the elongation is the node's displacement along the direction minus the prescribed offset , so a nonzero settlement loads the structure even with no applied forces, and the reaction depends on that relative stretch. A settlement of zero is an ordinary grounded spring. ### Equilibrium And Active Set At convergence, every node is in static equilibrium under applied loads, support reactions, the axial forces of active members, and the transverse initial-stress forces implied by those active members. The active set and the displacement field must agree with the unilateral rules above. A cable or strut is judged by its total axial force after installed strain and elastic extension are both included. If a governing system is singular or not positive definite, let the exception from the provided linear solver propagate. `solve()` must call `Model::validate()` before assembling the analysis. ## Outputs `SolveResult` must populate: - `displacements`: one value per global DOF. - `reactions`: one value per global DOF, zero for unsupported DOFs. - `axial_forces`: one value per element, positive in tension. - `utilization`: one signed value per element. Use an allowable stress of `2.5e8 Pa`; capacity scales with area. Inactive unilateral members report zero. - `active`: one flag per element. All vectors must have the lengths implied by the model. ## Build And Test ```bash cmake -S /opt/truss2d -B /opt/truss2d/build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release cmake --build /opt/truss2d/build --parallel cd /opt/truss2d/build && ctest --output-on-failure ``` The shipped test is only a smoke test. The grader restores a clean project snapshot, copies in your `src/solver.cpp`, and runs a hidden correctness suite against independent analytic and numerical references.
I'll start by exploring the project structure and understanding the existing code.

The pure-elastic start is singular when the transverse stability comes entirely from prestress. I should initialize the Picard iteration from the installed prestress force instead of zero.

The implementation is complete and verified. Here's a summary of what I implemented in `/opt/truss2d/src/solver.cpp`: ## `element_stiffness_global` Standard two-force-member elastic stiffness `k·B·Bᵀ` where `k = EA/L₀` and `B = [-c, -s, c, s]` projects nodal displacements onto the member axis. ## `assemble_system` Sums the elastic stiffness of active members plus each spring's `κ·d̂d̂ᵀ` contribution (resists displacement only along the spring's unit direction , a skew roller). Ordinary elastic behavior only, as the contract requires. ## `prestrain_force` Combines mechanical lack-of-fit and thermal strain into installed strain `ε₀ = prestrain + α·dT`, producing the RHS force `EA·ε₀·B`. Sign is correct: a member too long (`ε₀>0`) pushes its ends apart and is initially compressive. ## `solve` The full nonlinear analysis: - Calls `Model::validate()` first. - **Initial-stress (geometric) stiffness**: each active member adds `(N/L)·T·Tᵀ` (transverse projection `T=[s,-c,-s,c]`), using its *total* axial force. Tension stiffens the transverse mode, compression softens it; it vanishes for rigid translation and axial motion, and doesn't alter the recovered axial force. - **Consistent state**: a Picard iteration on member forces , seeded from the installed prestress (so prestress-stabilized structures don't start singular) , until assumed forces, displacements, and recovered forces coincide. - **Active set**: iterates the unilateral rules (cable tension-only, strut compression-only, bar always active), judging each member by its total recovered axial force; dropped members report exactly zero force/utilization. - **Settlement**: spring stores stretch relative to the prescribed offset, contributing `κ·settlement·d̂` to the RHS; reactions are `-κ(u·d̂ − settlement)d̂` (force the spring applies to the structure). - Singular/non-PD systems let `solve_spd`'s exception propagate. I verified against analytic references for axial load, prestrain, thermal, cable slackening/tension, strut separation, settlement, inclined members, and both tension-stiffening and compression-softening geometric effects , all exact. The build and shipped smoke test pass.
