Summary
Some optimizations require bounds on the design variables xxx. E.g. for the diameter of any mechanical support must be above a certain minimum value.
As not all optimization algorithms include bound handling, the module BoundHandler was created.

Module Description
The optimization algorithm proposes one or several new solutions x. Some values of x might be outside the lower bounds xl and upper bounds xu, specified in the "Problem" module. These variables are corrected to values within the bounds by thress different methods:
0. no bound handling
This option turns off the bound handling.
1. set to bounds
If one of the variables x is below or above the bounds, it is set to the bound value, i.e.
if x < xl, then x = xl else if x > xu, then x = xu
2. reflect
If one of the variables x is below or above the bounds, it is reflected from the bound. The reflection is done such that if x goes to infinity, x is equal to the lower bound and if x goes to minus infinity, it is set to the upper bound.
if x < xl, then x = xu + (xl- xu)^2 / (x - xu)
else if x > xu, then x = xl + (xu- xl)^2 / (x - xl)
