A quick search of the forums reveals that the warning "GlobalToLocal: did not converge" has come up in a few instances.
I'm experiencing this error myself, and I'm wondering if anyone can help me understand the root cause of this? The backtrace for this error is roughly:
GlobalToLocal
PointInElement
InterpolateMeshToMesh
My Own Code
I noticed that in all instances where I receive this warning, the point is not in the element (abs(u or v or w) > 1.0).
The warning I receive is:
Code: Select all
WARNING:: GlobalToLocal: did not converge.
