3D mesh from 2D tessellation for simulation

[xshang93]

After generating 3D meshes from a 2D tessellation with the option -dim 3 in neper -M, I realized it can't be readily used for fepx simulation. Specifically, in this .msh file the node set $nset and $faset sections are missing (I think fepx relies on these to place boundary conditions?) and the orientation section is missing too. For the $nset and $faset mssing, I think the -nset option in module M should help, but I couldn't make it work. For the missing orientation, I believe I can just copy from tessellation file.

The commands I used are:

$ neper -T -n '10' -id 1 -dim 2 -domain 'square(1,1)' -ori 'random' -morpho 'gg' -reg 1 -sel 0.0018257 -o 10
$ neper -M 10.tess -cl '0.06' -order 2 -dim 3 -pl 100 -meshqualmin 1.0

And a picture of what I'm dealing with:

I have encountered the same problem, is it a bug in Neper? @rquey

@Treue17, this has been moved to #371.
