The LMG package is a solver package for MODFLOW supported by GMS.

Maximum outer iterations

This value is the maximum iterations, or calls to the solver. For linear problems, this value can be 2. For non linear problems, this values should be larger, but generally less than 50.

Maximum inner iterations

This value is the maximum number of iterations per call to the solver. The default value is 50, and this is sufficient for most problems.

Acceleration type

Three different acceleration methods are available: constant, adaptive damping using the Cooley method, or adaptive damping using the relative reduced residual. Refer to the official package documentation for more explanation on the different damping methods.

Accleration Parameter

This value is used if the acceleration method is set to constant. Usually, this value is 1.0, but for some problems lower values may help achieve convergence.

Max Acceleration

This is the max damping value when using the adaptive damping with relative reduced residual.

Min Acceleration

This is the min damping value when using the adaptive damping with relative reduced residual.

Budget Closure Criterion

When the scaled norm of the matrix equations is less than this value then the solver iteration stops.

Conjugate Gradient

Controls whether the conjugate gradient method is used to accelerate the solver. By default this option is on.

Stor1, Stor2, Stor3

These variables are used to control the amount of memory storage used by the solver. The defaults rarely need to be changed.

Reset

This button will change all options to the default state.
