Example 1 Lines avoiding all the base-points will be mapped to conics passing through the new base points. Lines passing through one base-point will be mapped to lines passing through the ’opposite new’ basepoint.
The Graphic Statics method introduced by Cremona became so popular that nowadays, the graph-ical method of solving structural trusses is often called the Cremona method. Other contributors to the graphical methods include Levy, who used them to calculate trusses and masonry arch bridges in Levy ( 1888); Poleni; Lame and Clapeyron;

A clockwise convention is applied to this diagram, using Bow's notation, to determine whether each member of the truss is in tension or compression. The completed diagram of equilibrium polygons is traditionally called either a Maxwell diagram or a Cremona plan; in this paper it is called a Maxwell-Cremona diagram.
The aim of this paper is to show that these Cremona transformations generate both the group of automorphisms and the group of diffeomorphisms of the sphere, the torus and of all non-orientable surfaces.
on structures. The clarity of the graphical method has a high didactic value, since interrelations and interdependencies, e.g. between structural geometry and forces, can be directly experienced visually. The Cremona diagram shown in Figure 6, for example, clearly illustrates how a reduction of the forces acting in the members of a framework can be
Cremona diagram for a plane truss. The Cremona diagram, also known as the Cremona-Maxwell method, is a graphical method used in statics of trusses to determine the forces in members (graphic statics). The method was developed by the Italian mathematician Luigi Cremona.
