microgen 1.0.1

Microstructure generation

Microgen is a simple python library that helps to generate and mesh microstructures.

Here are the main features:

• Entirely written in Python 3 and based on CadQuery and PyVista libraries.
• It allows to generate simple reinforcement geometries (spheres, cylinder, ellipsoids, …) to generate virtual composites microstructures.
• Three-dimensional Voronoi tessellation rallons to simulate the response granular materials and polycrystalline metals.
• Regular mesh and periodic mesh are implemented using Gmsh, remeshing using Mmg is also implemented.
