Question #698058 on Yade changed:

Description changed to:
Dear all,
As a beginner of Yade,I want to start with the uniaxial compression test.I refer to the code of many people on the forum.
When I run the following code, no matter how to modify the parameters of UniaxialStrainer(), I can't get the ideal stress-strain curve.The problems are as follows:
1.When the following code is run, the strain increases and the stress remains constant after an instantaneous increase.
2.When I changed the parameter asymmetry of uniaxialstrain() to 1, the cylinder was scattered from below, which puzzled me.
3.In the above process, I am also puzzled by the positive and negative values of stress and strain.In my understanding, when strainrate is set to a negative value, the stress and strain are both compressive, then both are negative. But the actual situation doesn't seem to be like this. I don't know if I understand it right.
Can anyone help me? Thanks!!
