Detailed Description

Various convergence tests based on the norm of the residual.

Use the constructor to define the test based on the type of scaling (see ScaleType) and the type of Tolerance (see Tolerance).

If checkStatus is called with the type set to NOX::StatusTest::None, then the status is set to NOX::StatusTest::Unevaluated and returned. (Also #normF is set to 0.0.)

If checkStatus 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 #normF is set to -1.0.)

Finally, we return NOX::StatusTest::Converged if $\alpha < \beta$, and NOX::StatusTest::Unconverged otherwise. Here $\alpha$ represents the norm of $ F(x)$ and $\beta$ represents the tolerance, as described below.

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

Then $\alpha$ is defined as follows:

We set $\beta$ as follows, based on the value of tolerance in the constructor.

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.
