Conclusions:
In the present study, a Python code was
proposed to generate a scatter diagrams,
which are, knows as Ashby charts. Obtained
results shown that the Ashby charts
obtained with the proposed code are
suitable for use in the selection of
materials using the graphical method, due
to their great similarity to the original
Ashby diagrams, generally obtaining errors
of less than 16%.
