Question related to Cohesive Zone Modelling- Mode 2 Fracture

      Hi,

      I'm trying to model a 2D-Axisymmetric fiber-matrix pushout test in ANSYS APDL. I've assigned the material properties to fiber, matrix and the interface. The interface of the fiber and matrix is made of cohesive zone materials (INTER 202 element) . I'm planning on using a bi-linear traction seperation law (Mode 2 failure). I've assigned the bilinear properties using  TB,CZM with TBOPT = BILI. C1,C2,C3,C4,C5 have been assigned used TBDATA. All the necessary boundary and loading conditins have been applied. But when I run the file, I get an error saying that no material properties are assigned to INTER 202 elements.

      How do i go about this roadblock ? Any kind of guidance would be appreciated.

      Thank you.
