Not Getting Expected Unloading Results PDMY Material

Post by armkam » Mon Jan 16, 2017 2:18 pm

Hi,

I have modeled a simple medium sand soil column with PDMY material using four 1x1m quad elements which is fixed at based and constrained at 1st Dof (horizontally) at both sides.
A series of loading/unloading vertical load is applied on upper surface nodes. This is like compression test (Oedometer) and the loading phase of vertical stress-strain is expected but the unloading phase is so close to loading case which is so unexpected. The vertical load/unload is with 50KN increment increasing from 0 to 1000MN and then decreasing to 0 again.
The ideal curve and the obtained curve are as follows respectively:

Also you can find the loading/unloading file if needed here:

I don't know whom I should ask this question and I have emailed code developers but got no answers so far.
