D1.3 Failure Criterion

The failure criterion defines under which conditions a user-defined error handling or recovery should be invoked, e.g., when the limit for the iteration counter is exceeded. The simulation could then be restarted using, e.g., a smaller timestep.

Block
{
   failure = iterationCount >= if (firstStep,
                                      iterationLimit,
                                      iterationLimitStep);
}
