5.4.7. RelativeEnergyIncrΒΆ

test('RelativeEnergyIncr', tol, iter, pFlag=0, nType=2)

Create a RelativeEnergyIncr test, which uses the relative dot product of the solution vector and norm of the right hand side of the matrix equation to determine if convergence has been reached.

tol (float)

Tolerance criteria used to check for convergence.

iter (int)

Max number of iterations to check

pFlag (int)

Print flag (optional):

  • 0 print nothing.

  • 1 print information on norms each time test() is invoked.

  • 2 print information on norms and number of iterations at end of successful test.

  • 4 at each step it will print the norms and also the \(\Delta U\) and \(R(U)\) vectors.

  • 5 if it fails to converge at end of numIter it will print an error message but return a successfull test.

nType (int)

Type of norm, (0 = max-norm, 1 = 1-norm, 2 = 2-norm). (optional)
