Sculpt Mesh Transformation

Sculpt options for applying transformations to the mesh following mesh generation. For cases where the initial geometry description may not be at the desired scale or bounds, the transformation options provide the ability to apply transformations to the node locations following the mesh generation procedure. This can be effective for microstructure models, where the size and location may be defined by the given intervals of the data.
