◆ _compensate_non_equilibrium_initial_residuum

bool NumLib::NonlinearSolver< NonlinearSolverTag::Newton >::_compensate_non_equilibrium_initial_residuum = false

private

Enables computation of the non-equilibrium initial residuum \( r_{\rm neq} \) before the first time step. The forces are zero if the external forces are in equilibrium with the initial state/initial conditions. During the simulation the new residuum reads \( \tilde r = r - r_{\rm neq} \).
