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

Data description/conditions:

MAXSIT:

Maximum number of soil iterations to be used in analysis

> 0

[Default: 20]

MERPTS:

Maximum number of soil iteration error points that is allowed in an error-field

≥ 0

[Default: 0]

(An error field is defined as an uninterrupted sequence of error points resulting from a specific soil iteration criterion. Three soil iteration criteria (lateral soil reaction, axial friction and torsional friction) are scanned.)

MERFLDS:

Maximum number of soil iteration error fields that is allowed

≥ 0

[Default: 0]

(MERFLDS relates to the sum of all occurring error fields)

 

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