Add "best-fit" equilibrium #19

@tomvanmele

Description

@tomvanmele

Currently, the equilibrium geometry of a form diagram is generated by computing horizontal and vertical equilibrium in two separate steps.

Although this is very educational, it is often difficult to achieve specific results.

For scenarios where a specific outcome is desired, we should a function that computes the "best-fit" equilibrium for a given target geometry.

The corresponding RV workflow button could execute the following steps:

  • ask user to select a target
  • compute target heights for each of the form diagram vertices
  • compute a force distribution that results in a close match of the target heights
  • update form and force diagram
