Add model to Network: adjust_coordinates? #662

Closed jgostick closed 6 years ago

jgostick commented 7 years ago

When creating a Network we ask for the lattice spacing, but the desired value is highly dependent on the Geometry models/values used. It might be handy to have a method that automatically adjusts the spacing once the size of the pores are known to ensure everything is well scaled. The model could do several things:

  1. Adjust spacing so that the minimum throat length is 0 or some target value
  2. Adjust spacing iteratively to meet some target porosity

All network manipulation stuff will be in topotools. We are probably going to enforce that you can't mess with a network after geom/phase/phys have been added, so there is not really a needs for these things to be 'models.
