This release contains several important bug fixes and dependency updates.

Python 3.9 support is dropped ahead of the upcoming 3.13 release. Python 3.13 support will be added once all the core upstream dependencies support 3.13.

A bug in the CompoundGeometry offset dilation algorithm was fixed by @connorferster, a live stream of this fix can be watched here.

Most importantly a critical bug in the plastic moment calculation was found and fixed, see issue #460. Note that this bug affected plastic moment calculations for composite sections only, the plastic centroid calculation and geometric-only analyses were unaffected.

:star: Highlights

• New, unambiguous section property retrieval with get() methods, see an example here.
• Improved stress plotting options (new colorbar features, mesh opacity, plot selected materials), see an example here.
• Improved documentation style and automation.
• sectionproperties API now has full typing coverage.
• Significantly expanded examples in the documentation.
• Add support for Python 3.11.
• Improved workflow, CI and contributor experience by introducing poetry and nox.

:boom: Breaking Changes

• Update section property get() methods behaviour as per #287 to circumvent confusion surrounding material weighted properties. An analysis without material properties uses the get_{property}() syntax, while an analysis with material properties typically uses the get_e{property}() syntax with the added option of retrieving transformed section properties. See here for a list of the new get() methods and here for a discussion surrounding this issue.
• Stress plotting methods have been simplified to improve maintainability and code repetition. You can now plot stress results by using the plot_stress() or plot_stress_vector() methods that belong to the StressPost object.
• get_stress_at_point() method removed, use the more versatile get_stress_at_points() method instead.
• Pythonic renaming of methods and variables, e.g. get_As() becomes get_as() for retrieving shear areas, moments and shears change from Mxx and Vx to mxx and vx.
• Concrete section library - renamed argument names to be more pythonic, reinforcement now requires an area and diameter.
• Dropped support for Python 3.8 (#289).

:rocket: Features

• Packaging and dependency management with poetry.
• Improve length/readability of imports by placing key classes in __init__.py files, e.g. from sectionproperties.pre.library.primitive_sections import rectangular_section becomes from sectionproperties.pre.library import rectangular_section
• Significant analysis performance and readability improvements (#293, #298) thanks to @TLCFEM.
• Allow unlipped cee and zed sections (#300), thanks to @smith120bh.
• Export analysis results to fibre sections that can be used by the suanPan FEM platform (#295), thanks to @TLCFEM.
• Allow spline options to be specified when importing .dxf files (#292), thanks to @ccaprani.
• Improved plotting options, including colorbar string formatting, mesh opacity options, custom colorbar limits, custom colorbar label, option to only plot selected materials (#291).
• Added option to specify minimum mesh angle (#290).
• Added support for Python 3.11 (#289).

:bug: Fixes

• Fix symmetric difference operation not auto-detecting holes in the geometry (#297), thanks to @connorferster.
• Provide clarity on how to create arbitrary sections without a facet list (#294).
• CGS solver fix (#268), thanks to @simo-11.

:rotating_light: Testing

• Use nox & nox-poetry for testing.
• Move test_plastic_centroid() to test_plastic.py.
• Various tests added.

:construction_worker: Continuous Integration

• Add poetry integration and detailed contributor guidelines.
• Added labeller and release drafter automation.
• Added pre-commit checks.
• Updated all workflows.

:books: Documentation

• Changed documentation theme to furo.
• General overhaul of the documentation.
• Auto-generate API documentation using sphinx.ext.autodoc.
• Auto-generate images in documentation using the matplotlib plot directive.
• Change examples from sphinx gallery to jupyter notebook style with nbsphinx.
• Add intersphinx mappings.

sectionproperties - v2.0.0

sectionproperties v2 incorporates significant changes to the pre-processor, which now uses the Shapely package to power advanced geometry creation and manipulation, and vastly improves the performance and robustness of the plastic section property algorithm. v2.x.x introduces many breaking changes from v1.x.x when creating and manipulating Geometry, refer to the documentation for more information.

Pre-Processor:

A special mention to @connorferster for a majority of these fantastic additions!

• sections.py renamed to geometry.py
• All Geometry objects are defined by a shapely Polygon
• Addition of new geometry manipulation methods and geometry set operators
• Added .dxf import, thanks to @aegis1980
• Added .3dm import, thanks to @normanrichardson
• Introduction of a CompoundGeometry class for geometries with multiple regions
• Geometry objects are assigned a Material property object, CompoundGeometry objects can contain multiple Geometry objects (each with their own Material object) enabling composite analysis
• Geometry and CompoundGeometry objects contain mesh information and meshing must be performed before initialising a Section object
• Improved .offset_perimeter() logic
• Meshing is now performed by triangle, meshpy is no longer a dependency
• Material class now requires a .density parameter
• The section library (sectionproperties.pre.library) now contains the built-in sectionproperties geometries
• Added triangular_section() and triangular_radius_section() to the primitive_sections library
• Added concrete_sections library - contains concrete_rectangular_section(), concrete_tee_section() and concrete_circular_section()
• Added bridge_section library, thanks to @ccaprani - contains super_t_girder_section() and i_girder_section()

Analysis:

• cross_section.py renamed to section.py
• CrossSection object renamed to Section and is now initialised with only a Geometry or CompoundGeometry object
• Added calculation of cross-section mass
• Added calculation of weighted material properties - E_eff, G_eff, nu_eff
• The plastic algorithm is now performed by shapely, improving performance and robustness
• Added calculation of principal stresses, thanks to @ccaprani
• Shape factors are no longer calculated for composite sections (irrelevant property)

Post-Processor:

• Added the plotting_context() manager, allowing easily saving files, passing kwargs to pyplot.subplots() and much more! Many thanks to @Spectre5
• Improved contour plotting behaviour
• Added plotting of Mohr's circle of stresses for any given point, thanks to @ccaprani
• .display_results() now reports E.J and E.Iw instead of G.J and G.Iw
• .display_results() now reports modulus weighted shear areas for composite sections

Misc.:

• Many spelling and code style fixes, thanks to @Spectre5
• Updated documentation to include theoretical background
• Updated examples to be performed by sphinx-gallery, thanks to @normanrichardson and @Spectre5
