structures.local_reactions(fx, fy, fz, mx, my, mz, dx, dy, dz, roll, ix, delx, imx_free, imy_free, imz_free, jmx_free, jmy_free, jmz_free)

Returns the local reaction vector for an element.

Parameters:
fx, fy, fz : float

The force vector.

mx, my, mz : float

The moment vector.

dx, dy, dz : float

The element distance vector.

roll : float

The roll of the element.

ix, : float

The distance from the i node of the element to where the beginning of the loads are applied.

dx : float

The distance from the ix position toward the j node over which the loads are applied.

imx_free, imy_free, imz_free : bool

The fixities at the i end of the element.

jmx_free, jmy_free, jmz_free : bool

The fixities at the j end of the element.
