CONVERGE - Controls convergence

CONVERGE {LEVEL | ORDER} val

This keyword allows the user to specify the convergence criteria used for a run. The two possible options are defined below.

    LEVEL   Check for maximum residual less than val.
ORDER Check for reducing maximum residual by val orders of magnitude.

The default is a four-order of magnitude decrease in the maximum residual.

If Newton iteration is being used, this keyword specifies the convergence criteria within a Newton time step. The overall global convergence criteria is specified using the NEWTON keyword.
