ehsan benabbas is still having a problem:

I get your point. However, it is not a different material (for me at least). 
When we are considering the same specimen, and this specimen is a real subject 
in our minds, we should get the same mechanical behavior apart from the 
scientific approach we look at the specimen.  In fact, the material, the 
specimen, and its properties, all are the same, so, just changing the contact 
law should not lead to a different mechanical behavior (new stress-strain 
curve).

With the FricMat,  I get the dens behavior (with peak) which makes sense as the 
porosity is 0.4 and grains are in the sphere shape and fully rounded. The 
problem with this contact law is the "young" parameter which makes the code to 
be run so long as for 3 weeks. However, with the ViscElMat I get only the 
hardening behavior which refers to a loose specimen (with cn=cs=0)  but the 
code will be run only in 15 minutes.
Again, for the FricMat, when I define the "young" based on Kn, it gets a value 
which makes the run-time so long.
