GRASP Python

The document outlines a process for analyzing structural reactions at various nodes, including the calculation of reaction forces and moments. It also includes a method for visualizing the deformed shape of the structure based on calculated displacements. Results are presented in a message box, and a scale factor is used to enhance the visualization of deformations.
