4. Summary of results

In the figure below, a comparison of Newton iterations is presented between the case of the calculated tangent matrix and that of the tangent matrix by disturbance. It can be seen that the calculated tangent matrix is much more efficient than the one by disturbance, thanks to better consideration of the multiple mechanisms of the law of behavior.
