Dear Christian Jakob and all users:
     Thanks for the suggestions you gave me. So I have taken a correct running 
of my 2D biaxial compression simulation but still have some questions about the 
curve of deviatoric stress versus axial strain. The link of my result image is 
http://i.imgur.com/TRgetm4.jpg.
     As a student DEM researcher, lack of experience makes me hard to 
understand this result, in which the values of deviatoric stress are not 
smooth, that can fluctuate with the increase of axial-strain. But in this paper 
"DEM Modeling and Geotechnical Applications" from Bruno Chareyre, the same 
curve can be described as http://i.imgur.com/cgd7UHR.jpg.
     This paper notice that the difference between the quasistatic limit and 
the apparent peak stress from the simulation can be controlled if the strain 
rate is small enough. But I think that the strain rate is not the only reason 
for this problem occuring, there may be some other factors that can effect this 
result such as material, confining pressure, damping, contact law or 
calculation step. So I upload some important details of my whole script and ask 
your help!
