The items in the STWAVE menu in the Cartesian Grid Module are described below:

Run STWAVE

After a simulation has been read or saved, SMS can launch the finite element analysis engine. To run STWAVE:

  1. Select STWAVE | Run STWAVE. A dialog appears showing the engine that will execute.
  2. If the executable program is the wrong version, or if you are given the message that it was not found, then click the file browser icon and choose the correct version of the program that should run.
  3. Click the OK button or press the ENTER key.

A window will appear which displays various information as STWAVE runs. You should not need to type anything in this window. If the window prompts you for filenames, you need an updated version of the STWAVE model executable. When STWAVE has finished, you will be prompted to press the ENTER key. If the window goes away before doing this, STWAVE encountered a problem and crashed.
