         <p class="para_refCategory">The angular deviation is used to define the maximum angle that is allowed between an element and its originating surface. This is calculated as the sum of the angular deviation between the surface normal and element planar normal at any two positions within the element boundary. If the angle between the element and surface is greater than the angular deviation tolerance, the element will be subdivided. This procedure is repeated until all elements are within the specified angular tolerance or until the sides of the element have been reduced to 1/4 of the linear tolerance.</p>
