I can not see this on my solver

Thank you,

    What type of analysis are you running?

     

    If you are running a linear static analysis you don't see anything on convergence graph

    @Prakash Pagadala,

    Yes, you're right, I run static linear analysis....

    But I still don't understand, why in linear static analysis does not appear anything?, and what is the purpose of this window actually?

    Because analysis is static and linear which means applied load doesn't vary with time and applied load is proportional to response of the structure. When time/iteration/optimization doesn't come it to picture then there is no point talking about convergence. 

     

    You can run any optimization problem to check the convergence.
