ttrr - TrussTopologyRobustRedundant: ttrr is a software package to do topology
optimization of a truss with respect to robustness and redundancy. For more help
type "pydoc ttrr"

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -f file [file ...]    file(s) to process
  --new                 create only new pictures/movies. do not overwrite
                        existing ones.
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  --png_gnuplot         create png-pictures with gnuplot
  --pdf_gnuplot         create pdf-pictures with gnuplot
  --gnuplot_cylinder    Use gnuplot with creating cylinders as bars. This is
                        slow.
  --png_pov             create png-pictures with povray
  --ogv                 create ogv-movies with povray and a converter
  -ogv_convert {ffmpeg2theora,png2theora,ffmpeg}
                        Set the converter to generate the movie from the png-
                        pictures, which povray creates. To create a movie with
                        ffmpeg2theora it needs png2yuv. default: ffmpeg2theora
  --apng                create apng-animation with apngasm
  --mng                 create mng-animation with convert
  --gif                 create gif-animation with convert
  --yuv                 create YUV4MPEG stream format with png2yuv. This is an
                        uncompressed movie-stream. It is only useful for
                        further conversions.
  --all_bars            create pictures with all bars (structural universe)
  --coordinate_system   create pictures with a coordinate system
  --small_coordinate_system
                        create pictures with a small coordinate system
  --show_result_table   show results in a table
  --show_results        show results
  -hist {log_asciiart,numbers,asciiart,all,none}
                        Show in results histogram(s) of bar cross sections of
                        this type. default: log_asciiart
  -ascii_hist_l lines   Set in asciiart histogram the numbers of lines.
                        (default: 3)
  -ascii_hist_c cols    Set in asciiart histogram the numbers of cols.
                        (default: 100)
  --save_module         save with scipy.io.save_as_module data from file(s) to
                        "{.dat,.dir,.py}"-files
  --save_mat            save with scipy.io.savemat data from file(s) to
                        ".mat"-file(s)
  -x pixels             x resolution of the pictures (default: 1000)
  -y pixels             y resolution of the pictures (default: 1000)
  -xm pixels            x resolution of the movies (default: 800)
  -ym pixels            y resolution of the movies (default: 600)
  -frames n             the movie will be created from n frames (default: 250)
  -framerate n          set the framerate. the movie will be created with n
                        frames per second (default: 25)
  -pov_angle a          For rendering pictures by povray the view angle is set
                        to a (default: 33)
  -pov_angle_m a        For rendering animations by povray the view angle is
                        set to a (default: 40)
  -minfact mf           a truss with a cross section less than mf*max(s) is
                        ignored. max(s) is the maximum over all truss cross
                        sections. if mf=0 no truss is ignored. (default: 1e-6)
