Inquiry about load displacement curves in Abaqus

Submitted by Sosso on

Hi all,

I am a modelling sandwich beams under three point bending in Abaqus Explicit, and my load displacement curves are quite strange. To plot them, I use the vertical displacement and reaction force of the loading indenter given in the field output data. Is it the right way to do it? (I'm quite new in Abaqus)

Thank you very much
