*NEWTONSTAT

Data format:

A single line comprising 5 values:

ITERAM PMAXI1 PMAXI2 PMAXI3 PMAXI4

Status:

Compulsory

Purpose:

Convergence criteria for Newton-Raphson algorithm during a static analysis

Details :

Parameter	Description
ITERAM	Maximum iterations number
PMAXI1	Convergence is achieved for forces when each component of the unbalanced forces vector is less than PMAXI1 % of the maximal tension (defaults to 0.01).
PMAXI2	Convergence is achieved for moments when each component of the unbalanced moments vector is less than PMAXI2 % of the maximal moment (defaults to 0.01.
PMAXI3	Convergence is achieved for translations when each component of the incremental translations vector is less than PMAXI3 times the maximal allowed translational displacement (defaults to 0.01)
PMAXI4	Convergence is achieved for rotations when each component of the incremental rotations vector is less than PMAXI4 times the maximal rotational displacement (defaults to 0.01)
