Jan Stránský requested more information:
> the behavior after peak stress is still showing brittle as long as I
keep the interaction enlarge factor as 1.5.

interaction enlarge factor should not play so important role, maybe opposite - that value close to 1 could be problematic.
What value of relDuctility do you use for these results?

> I notice that there is nearly no crack until it reaches peak stress
and all suddenly appears at that moment, could this phenomenon relate to
my problem?

yes :-)
the described behavior fits together with the described stress-strain diagram

cheers
Jan
