INRTAxes

INRTAxes (xromm.py)

• Calculates Inertial Axes from selected objects
• Creates, places and orients axes
• Opens AxAdj
• MESHES MUST BE CLOSED! (no holes)

Inertial axes and polygonal mesh properties calculations adopted from Joseph Crisco, python script follows Matlab scripts developed by Joseph Crisco lab members Anwar Upal and Evan Leventhal
