Mass from mesh nodes #107

Closed franaudo closed 5 years ago

franaudo commented 5 years ago

I have implemented the 'MassElement' element, which in abaqus is used to assign concentrated point masses for dynamic analysis.

The code assigns to the nodes of a predefined mesh in rhino the corresponding tributary mass and creates a mass element at those locations.

I have also added an example about how to use it in rhino.

My pleasure! I was just worried I was messing up with your code! :D Hope to contribute more in the future!
