v8.1.0

[8.1.0] - 2024-03-23

Added

• Add an argument to disable the (default) expansion of the points-array of a mesh in mesh.expand(expand_dim=True) and mesh.revolve(expand_dim=True). E.g., this allows the expansion and / or revolution of a quad-mesh with points in 3d-space.
• Add MultiPointContact.plot(offset=0, **kwargs) to plot the rigid contact plane(s) or line(s) at a given offset.
• Add MultiPointConstraint.plot(**kwargs) to plot the lines of a multi-point constraint.

Changed

• Don't raise an error if the total angle of revolution is greater than 360 degree in mesh.revolve(phi=361).

What's Changed

• Don't raise an error for mesh-revolutions with >360 degree, e.g. mesh.revolve(phi=361) by @adtzlr in #715
• Enhance mesh.expand(expand_dim=True) and mesh.revolve(expand_dim=True) by @adtzlr in #716
• Add MultiPointContact.plot(**kwargs) method by @adtzlr in #718
• Add MultiPointConstraint.plot(**kwargs) by @adtzlr in #719
• Enhance the plot()-methods of region, element and quadrature by @adtzlr in #721
• Enhance element plots by @adtzlr in #722
