How can I write out an Abaqus mesh from ICEM CFD? When I write the mesh out, there is a message about Gasket elements, even thoguh I have not selected this option, and there are no nodes in the element block. How can I fix this?

FAQ
ParticipantFor releases 18.2-2019R2, there is a problem withAbaqus Parameters and Attributes transfer from ICEM CFD. AS a result, ICEM generates Abaqus files that are missing element type and a lot of entries from the element block. This is because ICEM is trying to assign generic solid elements as gasket elements. ICEM issues the message: “Family SOLID_1_1 contain 3D 20Node Element, which does not support Gasket Elements ” To correct the output, the following corrections to ICEM Parameters and Attributes are necessary: FEA Solve Options tab> Edit Options > Advanced Edit Parameters > Define Gasket behavior > > Delete Gasket… > Accept Edit Attributes > Mixed/unknown > SOLID_1_1 > Gasket… > Delete SOLID_1_1 > Create new > Continuum (Solid) Element Type > Create 3-D Solid Element > Okay > Accept OK Then the Abaqus mesh writes out properly.
