problem to plot an experimental curve "look a like" curve for using ABAQUS...

[nes1986@hotmail.com]

im new to ABAQUS, so i go try example file which name 1.1.8 Uniaxial ratchetting under tension and compression (case1), and i could manage to plot stress-strain curve...but what i got is just a straight linear line and didn't match with the desired curve (ordinary tensile graph)...so, wat is the problem?

i think you should do it in reverse manner like recheck it then plot stress-strain curve...there is the issue..
