louisepb/TexGen: TexGen v3.13.0

TexGen software, developed at the University of Nottingham for modelling the geometry of textile structures. TexGen models may be used as the basis of simulations for prediction of a variety of properties, including textile mechanics, permeability and composite mechanical behaviour.

This release has changed the TexGen api to use Python 3. Existing scripts should continue to run using the Run Script option in the GUI after the addition of a line to import the TexGen core library (from TexGen.Core import *). A new class CDomainPrism has been implemented which allows concave sets of domain planes to be specified, e.g. T-shaped or arcs. This is only accessible via scripting. It's use is described in the scripting guide with a sample script. Layer to layer 3D woven textiles can be created with binder layers following different paths (rather than all binder layers moving together through the layers) using the new CTextileDecoupledLToL class. This is accessible via Python scripting.
