cyclic loading

Submitted by danielteruna on

Hi all,

 I am very appreciate if any one can help me to explain how to get hysteretic cuve using abaqus.

I have tried a cantilever plate subjected to cyclic loading but when I saw the graphic desplacement vs load, 

did not show a hysteresis loop. I  input the data of material (stress and plastic strain in isotropic hardening), because when I chose kinematic hardening

the program did not run. It may be the data is not completely. 

Thank you for your help

regard
