Chareyre proposed the following answer:
>The 5 faces (4 faces around the box and one face at the bottom) of the
box are fixed by value of stress and have the stress on them by default
100kPa (confinement stress). The top face is going down slowly
I would call this null loading!
If 100 kPa are imposed at the bottom and you move the top plate down, then the
bottom plate will follow and go down at almost the same speed. Although it is
possible to simulate this, it is probably not what you want since it will
simulates a rigid-body translation...
You can use strain control for this purpose yes, but I would also
strain-control the bottom plate.
