Nodal movement to improve mesh quality.

Detailed Description

The SmoothMesh module is used to move various nodes in a mesh in an attempt to improve the overall mesh quality. The TSTT MESQUITE library is the work-horse for this module. (see http://www.cs.sandia.gov/optimization/knupp/Mesquite.html and/or http://www.tstt-scidac.org/research/mesquite.html for more information, or http://software.sandia.gov to download the MESQUITE library.)

Only TetVol, HexVol, TriSurf, and QuadSurf meshes are currently supported by this module. It is important that the triangles are oriented consistently when smoothing a TriSurfMesh.
