  1. The search radius is used to find for one node the corresponding one on the other side of the interface. If the distance between nodes is less than Rad, they are considered as corresponding nodes. If there are some geometrical differences between faces or if random noise is applied, RAD2RAD will not be able to find corresponding nodes to build the interfaces. An error message will occur. In this case the increase of Rad can solve the problem.
