        /** This module is used by both models, general mesh models and the plant and tree models for the trunk and the branches. It contains functions that generate simplified versions of 3D objects made out of triangles. Given a 3D object, this module computes a sequence of geometric transformations that reduce the object’s geometric detail while preserving its appearance. For each simplification step, returns a simplification sequence containing the edge to be collapse, the two triangles being removed and the new triangles remapped to the model.\n\n

Inputs:\n
        - A pointer to the Geometry::Mesh object containing the 3D model to be simplified.
        .
        
Outputs:\n
        -# The simplified mesh, contained in a Geometry::Mesh object.
        -# Simplification sequence, represented by a Geometry::MeshSimplificationSequence object.
