This command is used to construct a ConvergenceTest object. Certain SolutionAlgorithm objects require a ConvergenceTest object to determine if convergence has been achieved at the end of an iteration step. The convergence test is applied to the matrix equation, AX=B

test Command Equation

  1. Norm Unbalance Test test is Norm(X) < tol
  2. Norm Displacement Increment Test test is Norm(X) < tol
  3. Energy Increment Test test dot(X,B) < tol
  4. Relative Norm Unbalance Test test is Norm(X) < tol * Norm(X) at trial step 1
  5. Relative Norm Displacement Increment Test test is Norm(X) < tol * Norm(B) at trial step 1
  6. Relative Energy Increment Test test dot(X,B) < tol * dot(X,B) at trial step 1
