Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Hi Liu,

see the source code of VTKReorder [1] and CpmPhys [2], the implementation
differs by the sign. In Cpm, positive force is tension, so in Paraview
output, positive force is compression (you can do a simple 2 particles test
where you know the result in advance). You can use Paraview Calculator
filter to swap the behavior.
Cheers
Jan
