Description: # tessToPy
        ## Overview
        tessToPy is a python package for representing a tessellated structure generated by Neper (https://neper.info/). This tessellation representation can be combined with a python representation of the discretized structure and used to write input files for finite element analysis (FEA). The primary function of the code is to regularize a periodic tessellation. The regularization tries to remove short edges from the structure, as short edges could be detremental to the overall quality of a FEA mesh. 
        
        A unregularized and regularized tessellation is shown below:

        The effect of regularization on the edge length distribution in a 400 cell tessellation is shown  below:
