Convergence

Termination criteria for the iterative solvers.

While the convergence criterion is solver specific, most of the provided iterative solvers use one of the following criteria

\( ||r||_X \leq tol_{rel}||r_0||_X \),

\( ||r||_X \leq tol_{abs} \),

\( ||r||_X \leq \max\{ tol_{abs}, tol_{rel} ||r_0||_X \} \),

where X denotes the space in which the norm is measured. The choice of X depends on the specific iterative solver.

void mfem::IterativeSolver::SetPrintLevel ( int  print_lvl)
virtual

Legacy method to set the level of verbosity of the solver output.

This is the old way to control what information will be printed to mfem::out and mfem::err. The behavior for the print level for all iterative solvers is:

  • -1: Suppress all outputs.
  • 0: Print information about all detected issues (e.g. no convergence).
  • 1: Same as level 0, but with detailed information about each iteration.
  • 2: Print detected issues and a summary when the solver terminates.
  • 3: Same as 2, but print also the first and last iterations.
  • >3: Custom print options which are dependent on the specific solver.

In parallel, only rank 0 produces output.

Note
It is recommended to use SetPrintLevel(PrintLevel) instead.
Some derived classes, like KINSolver, redefine this method and use their own set of print level constants.

Reimplemented in mfem::KINSolver.

Definition at line 71 of file solvers.cpp.

void mfem::IterativeSolver::SetPrintLevel ( PrintLevel  options)
virtual

Set the level of verbosity of the solver output.

In parallel, only rank 0 produces outputs. Errors are output to mfem::err and all other information to mfem::out.

Note
Not all subclasses of IterativeSolver support all possible options.
Some derived classes, like KINSolver, disable this method in favor of SetPrintLevel(int).
See Also
PrintLevel for possible options.
