The significance goes down as its value reduces.

The relaxation factor is a parameter used to control the stability and convergence of the solution:
- As the relaxation factor decreases (under relaxation factor), the stability of the solution increases.
- As the relaxation factor increases (over relaxation factor), the convergence of the solution increases.
