\noindent {\bf Description} \\
\indent The EquiSolnAlgo class is an abstract base class. Its
purpose is to define the interface common among all subtypes. An
EquiSolnAlgo object defines the sequence of operations
performed by the the Integrator and the LinearSOE objects in
solving the equilibrium equation $R(U) = 0$ given the current state of
the domain at each time step in a direct integration analysis or load
increment in a static analysis. \\

\noindent {\bf Constructor} \\
\indent {\em EquiSolnAlgo(int classTag);}\\
The integer {\em classTag} is passed to the SolutionAlgorithm classes
constructor. \\

\noindent {\bf Destructor} \\
\indent {\em virtual~ $\tilde{}$EquiSolnAlgo();}\\
Does nothing. \\


\noindent {\bf Public Methods}  \\
\indent {\em void setLinks(AnalysisModel \&theModel, \\
\indent\indent\indent\indent IncrementalIntegrator \&theIntegrator, \\
\indent\indent\indent\indent LinearSOE \&theSOE);} \\
Sets up the links needed by an object of this class, or a derived
class, to an AnalysisMode, IncrementalIntegrator and LinearSOE
object. Pointers to these objects can be obtained by subtypes using
the protected methods defined below. \\

\indent {\em virtual int solveCurrentStep(void) = 0;} \\
A method implemented by each subclass which specifies the steps taken
in order to get the system into an equilibrium state. It is a pure
virtual function, i.e. all subclasses or their descendents must
implement this routine. To return $0$ if algorithm succeeds, a negative
value otherwise. \\

\indent {\em virtual void Print(ostream \&s, int flag = 0) =0;}\\
The Integrator is to send information to the stream based on the
integer {\em flag}. \\

\indent {\em AnalysisModel *getAnalysisModelPtr(void) const;} \\
A const member function which returns a pointer to the AnalysisModel
associated with the EquiSolnAlgo object, {\em theModel} passed in {\em
setLinks()}. $0$ returned if one not yet associated. \\

{\em IncrementalIntegrator *getIncrementalIntegratorPtr(void) const;} \\
A const member function which returns a pointer to the StaticMethod
associated with the StaticSolnAlgo object, {\em theIntegrator} passed
in {\em setLinks()}. $0$ returned if one not yet associated. \\
 
{\em LinSysOfEqn *getLinearSOEptr(void) const;} \\
A const member function which returns a pointer to the LinearSOE
associated with the EquiSolnAlgo object, {\em theLinearSOE} passed in
{\em setLinks()}. $0$ returned if one not yet associated. \\
