Purpose

Cherry-picking @yqliaohk 's openmdao updates in #51 and pointing to master, so we can use these connections in WEIS.

I removed the VolturnUS rect test case and merged it into a single test case generated by the WEIS example: https://github.com/WISDEM/WEIS/blob/develop/examples/15_RAFT_Studies/weis_driver_raft_opt.py

@yqliaohk, @lucas-carmo, does this require anything in dev or can it be merged into master?

@dzalkind I took a look at the changed files and couldn't identify anything that would require dev. What do you think, @yqliaohk?

Sorry for the late response! There are some bug fixes on the rectangular member related calculations that are only in dev branch right now (https://github.com/WISDEM/RAFT/commits/dev/?before=9b0509974150342cbef2e7d4a3eecc326ed84a32+105) , but it should be able to run with master to create rectangular members.

You're right, I forgot about that bug fix!
As far as I remember, it fixes the hydrostatics of surface piercing rectangular elements. But it's not a huge change, I would say it's only relevant for a rectangular spar. For semisubs with rectangular columns, hydrostatics would be very slightly off (depending on the distance between columns). For semisubs with rectangular pontoons, that bug fix has no impact whatsoever.

I think this PR is safe to be merged.
