Specification of geometrically non-linear iteration control parameters (Input Table)

Data description/conditions:

MAXGIT:

Maximum number of geometry iterations to be used in analysis

> 0

[Default: 150]

(If MAXGIT is different from MAXSIT in table SOILCTL, the higher value is taken as the maximum number of iterations to perform)

RELDISEQ:

Rate of relative disequilibrium of overall pipeline

> 0 and < 0.05

[Default: 1.E-5]

ABSDISEQ:

Rate of absolute disequilibrium of overall pipeline

> 0 and < 0.01

[Default: 1.E-7]

ROTINCR:

Maximum allowed rotation increment per iteration

> 0 and < 1

[Default: 0.1 rad]

(Default values of RELDISEQ and ABSDISEQ are to be used when the stability may become critical (e.g. in case of upheaval buckling). In other cases the values 1.E-3/1.E-5 may be sufficient, but it is recommended to apply the default values. See also ITMON description.)

REDISOVL

Switch redistribution ovalisation on/off

[Default: Off]

The status of the checkbox is reported in the headline of table DEFORM and beyond the 'Section model' in the STATUS table.(See Table description)

This table is a single-row data table, meaning it is limited to holding only one row of data (Max/Min: 1/1 rows).
