Tasks relating to the geometry module
As a modeller and reactor designer I want to develop the capability to optimise stellarator designs with Bluemira. This requires the ability to represent the plasma's boundary in CAD form.
The software package Simsopt is widely used to optimise stellarators. Simsopt can generate a 3D plasma surface but this must be translated into a NURBS (Non-uniform rational B Spline) surface for CAD representation within Bluemira.
Edit: Add in the ability to plot stellarator magnets too.
Proposed solution
There are two parts to the solution:
