Operator ACT3 DATE 97/08/12 Opérateur ACT3 ---------------- CHPO = ACT3 CHPO2 CHPO1 CHPO0 CHFO3 CHFO2 CHFO1 CHFO0; Description : ____________ The ACT3 operator is used for accelerating the convergence of non linear calculations in mechanics. Method : _______ From 3 increments of correcting forces and the 4 corresponding imbalance forces, ACT3 evaluates the correction of correcting force allowing to minimize imbalance by solving the tangential problem on it's restriction to the subspace of dimension 3 defined by the fields on input.
