convergence

convergence

(OP)
Using ANSYS, I ran a structural solid problem. The model meshed fine and performed the analysis.
In the GUI I listed the results.
I noticed that the "convergence" was shown as 0.0.
I manually calculated the stresses and deflections and they compare quite well with the ANSYS results.

Can someone advise as to what "convergence" value I should be looking for?

Thanks

RE: convergence

If you are using ANSYS Workbench, this "convergence" is normal (since you probably have not used a specific set of convergence criteria); if you get this message from within ANSYS, you may need to expand on the details of the convergence problem, for example exactly where the message appears.
