It may be that others can speak with more knowledge about the question.
But what have you done already to debug the problem? Have you simplified the
material law by setting certain parameters to zero? Have you considered
uniaxial tests for which you can derive an exact solution, and compared your
code to that exact solution?
From your question, I infer that you have derived a complicated code whose
results you don't understand. That may be because you don't understand the
underlying mathematics (is it locking? do I need a different formulation?) or
because the code has a bug. You need to develop the mental tools to deal with
this kind of question -- you will be in this situation many more times in the
future. My approach is generally to make the problem simpler (like in the
examples above) so that I can derive what I expect theoretically and compare
with what I get practically.
