hysteresis curve does't show pinching effect

Post by hustsar »

Now I want to simulate a prestressed concrete frame with reversed load. Reinforcement,concrete and prestressed reinforcement uesd steel02, concrete01 and Hysteretic material respectively , but the result don't have pinching effect as the experiment. I have changed parameter in hysteretic material , but it does’t make any sense. Is there anybody could help me?
