TriangleGenerator Class

class plask.mesh.TriangleGenerator

Generator which creates triangular mesh by Triangle library authored by Jonathan Richard Shewchuk.

Triangle generates exact Delaunay triangulations, constrained Delaunay triangulations,conforming Delaunay triangulations, Voronoi diagrams, and high-quality triangular meshes. The latter can be generated with no small or large angles,and are thus suitable for finite element analysis.
