/* Running an SBR Simulation */
You can adjust the mesh resolution and increase the geometric fidelity of discretization by creating more and finer triangular facets. On the other hand, you may want to reduce the mesh complexity and send to the SBR engine only a few coarse facets to model your buildings. To adjust the mesh resolution, open the Mesh Settings Dialog by clicking the '''Mesh Settings''' [[File:mesh_settings.png]] button of the Simulate Toolbar or select '''Simulate > Discretization >''' '''Mesh Settings...'''. This dialog provides a single [[parameters]]: '''Edge Mesh Cell Size''', which has a default value of 100 project units. If you are already in the Mesh View Mode and open the Mesh Settings Dialog, you can see the effect of changing the mesh cell size using the {{key|Apply}} button.
Some additional mesh [[parameters]] can be accessed by clicking the {{key|Tessellation Options}} button of the dialog. In the Tessellation Options dialog, you can change the '''Curvature Angle Tolerance''' expressed in degrees, which has a default value of 45°. This parameter can affect the shape of the mesh especially in the case of [[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|[[Solid Objects|solid objects]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] with curved surfaces. Note that unlike [[EM.Cube]]'s other computational modules that express the default mesh density based on the wavelength, the resolution of the SBR mesh generator is expressed in project length units. The default mesh cell size of 100 units might be too large for non-flat objects. You may have to use a smaller mesh cell size along with a lower curvature angle tolerance value to capture the curvature of your curved structures adequately.

You can access EM.Terrano's Simulation Run dialog by clicking the '''Run''' [[File:run_icon.png]] button of the '''Simulate Toolbar''' or by selecting '''Simulate &gt; Run...''' or using the keyboard shortcut {{key|Ctrl+R}}. When you click the {{key|Run}} button, a new window opens up that reports the different stages of the SBR simulation and indicates the progress of each stage. After the SBR simulation is successfully completed, a message pops up and prompts the completion of the process.
