This enables GATE10 to create a tesselated volume shape based on an Standard Triangle Language (STL) data file. Such a file contains a mesh of triangles for one object. It is a typical output format of Computer Aided Design (CAD) software. To create such a volume add a volume of type “Tesselated”. Please keep in mind, that no material information is provided, it has to be specified by the user. A Tesselated volume inherits the the same basic options as other solids described above such as translation or rotation.
