Alters the convergence tolerance for the solution of the optimum cosine curve. This is necessary for API-653, Appendix B computations. If there are convergence problems with the current data set, the following steps should be taken:
-
Review and verify the shell settlement input data.
-
Adjust this convergence tolerance upward.
Increasing the convergence tolerance reduces the accuracy of the solution. Alternatively,
increase the iteration limit.
