Detailed Description

Various convergence tests based on the norm of the change in the solution vector, , between outer iterations.

If checkStatusEfficiently is called with the type set to NOX::StatusTest::None, then the status is set to NOX::StatusTest::Unevaluated and returned. (Also normUpdate is set to -1.0.)

If checkStatusEfficiently is called on the first iteration, then the status is set to NOX::StatusTest::Unconverged and returned. (Also normUpdate is set to -1.0.)

If checkStatusEfficiently is called on a problem where the solution group does not have F evaluated (i.e., problem.getSolutionGroup().isF() is false), then the status is set to NOX::StatusTest::Unconverged and returned. (Also normUpdate is set to -1.0.)

Finally, we return NOX::StatusTest::Converged if $\alpha < \beta$ and NOX::StatusTest::Uncoverged otherwise. Here $\alpha$ represents the norm of $\Delta x$ and $\beta$ represents the tolerance. We define:

$\Delta x = x_k - x_{k-1}$

where is the solution vector of the -th nonlinear iterate.

Let $\gamma$ denote an optional scale factor defined as

$\gamma = \frac{1}{n}$ if sType in the constructor is NOX::NormF::Scaled, and
$\gamma = 1$ if sType in the constructor is NOX::NormF::Unscaled.

Then $\alpha$ is defined as follows:

If nType in the constructor is Abstract::Vector::TWO, then
$\alpha = \sqrt{ \gamma \sum_{i=1}^n \Delta x_i^2 }$
If nType in the constructor is Abstract::Vector::ONE, then
$\alpha = \gamma \sum_{i=1}^n | \Delta x_i |$
If nType in the constructor is Abstract::Vector::INF, then
$\alpha = \gamma \max_{i} | \Delta x_i |$

Finally, $\beta$ is set to the tolerance in the constructor, i.e.,

$\beta = \mbox{tolerance}$

Test the stopping criterion

The test can (and should, if possible) be skipped if checkType is NOX::StatusType::None. If the test is skipped, then the status should be set to NOX::StatusTest::Unevaluated.

Implements NOX::StatusTest::Generic.
