photo ı applied force from this surface and ı split this face with line and also ı did same to bottom plate then ı created plane then ı used this plane for creating coordinate system and also ı used remote force. so this part seems ok ı guess.

As I said before, I thought about whether it would be more correct to apply displacement or force on the model and as I mentioned above, I created 2 different models. In the first model, I obtained 239 mpa (force was applied), in the second model, I applied displacement and obtained 242 mpa (it says the tests were performed with 0.0020 inch/min, so I applied 0.0020 inch). In order to see the difference between them and I observed that it did not make a big difference. What I am trying to explain is that I did not apply two things to the model at the same time. In order to observe the difference, I applied force and displacement separately.
 
I used directional deformation while calculating shear modulus. Also, I checked the force reaction and of course I got what I applied.
