        Parameters
        ----------
        allowPropagation
            A Boolean specifying whether to allow all solver control values to propagate from a 
            previous step. Setting this argument to ON automatically sets *resetDefaultValues* to 
            OFF. The default value is ON. 
        resetDefaultValues
            A Boolean specifying whether to use all default solver control values. Setting this 
            argument to ON automatically sets *allowPropagation*to OFF. The default value is OFF. 
        relativeTolerance
            The SymbolicConstant DEFAULT or a Float specifying the relative tolerance for 
            convergence of the domain decomposition iterative solver. The default value is DEFAULT. 
        maxIterations
            The SymbolicConstant DEFAULT or an Int specifying the maximum number of linear solver 
            iterations. The default value is DEFAULT. 
        fillInLevel
            The SymbolicConstant DEFAULT or an Int specifying the incomplete LU factorization 
            fill-in level (for geostatic and soil analysis only). The default value is DEFAULT.

        Raises
        ------
        RangeError
