Fixes #311

This is the Herget method but rebased for the updated version of main. For previous discussions see PR #502

Review Checklist for Source Code Changes

• Does pip install still work?
• Have you written a unit test for any new functions?
• Do all the units tests run successfully?
• Does Layup run successfully on a test set of input files/databases?
• Have you used black on the files you have updated to confirm python programming style guide enforcement?
