DGDEvolve Newton-Raphson iterations do not converge in certain situations #5

Description

@acbergan

The purpose of opening this issue on Github is to track cases where Newton-Raphson iterations fail to converge for the purpose of having a set of test cases for assessing efforts to improve the convergence algorithm.

The model log file shows the following error message when the DGD Newton-Raphson iterations do not converge:
***ERROR: No starting points produced a valid solution.

The attached input deck is a single element model that produces the error.
