Convergence
Module Overview
Understanding what convergence is and getting a Mechanica analysis model to converge are very important topics: without convergence a given analysis' results are not meaningful.

Objectives
After successfully completing this module, you will be able to:

Understand Adaptivity. Describe the key differences between Single-Pass Adaptive and Multi-Pass Adaptive convergence methods. Define Convergence. Determine if an analysis has converged. Create and Interpret Local Stress Error Estimate fringe plots. Create and Interpret P-Level fringe plots. Make changes to help non-converging models to converge.
