CEFILTER
CEFILTER, TermKey
Controls the automatic solution termination of models having constraint equations with
too many terms.
-
TermKey Enables or disables the solution termination if a model has constraint equations with too many terms:
ON
—
Automatically terminates the simulation with an error message (see Notes) upon encountering a model that has constraint equations with too many terms (default).
OFF
—
Disables automatic termination, and instead allows the solution to continue even if a model has constraint equations with too many terms.
Notes
A model with one or more constraint equations with too many terms is ill-posed, requires excessive memory allocation and solution times, and may never converge. By default, the program automatically terminates the simulation of such models with an error message stating that there were too many constraint equation terms. One reason this can occur is the misuse of Remote Points in the Mechanical Application, which create MPC equations. Best practice is to revise your model to have constraint equations with less terms.
If, instead, you wish to allow the solution to continue with increased solution time and memory requirements without changing your model, issue CEFILTER,OFF to bypass the automatic termination.
