Hi Jim

Thank you for your suggestion. I did plot effective stress vs effective strain for the integration points. From d3plot, I saw three integration points 1,2 and 3. When I plot, I am surprised to see that for integration point 2, it matches exactly to my input curve, for integration point 3, some sort of but for integration point 1, it did not match the input curve. 

 

 

I would be really grateful if you could let me know what is happening here? Why the integration point 2 matches while int point 1 not? Thanks again.
