Hi,

I have issues with importing gmsh-created meshes in Abaqus 6.12. I tried
two methods, which equally failed:
1 - I tried to save the mesh as OpenCASCADE step format but I have an
error:   "Error   : No OpenCASCADE model found"
2 - I tried to save the model as an Abaqus INP file but I have a problem
importing it in Abaqus : "Element type "C2D3" is not supported." with
triangles and "Element type "C1D2" is not supported" with segments.

Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

Cheers,

Pierre
