Altair EmployeeI am trying to equivalance gap elements of one model to another same meshed model of node to element type but when I checked the deck it is it is not getting equivalanced with elements as we can see in below image, associated are gone and are showing 0 value in deck

Altair EmployeeYes I did check all the criteria mentioned above everything was cleared and ok I will share the deck.
Your fem deck contains 2d elements and gap element. Please share full fem deck with loads and boundary condition along with .out file of the run.
I guess the issue could be because of node to elem option. Once the gap element is created you might be deleting the additional leg of gap element.Could you please use node to node option for gap element creation.
After equivalence nodes did you check free 1d,free1d nodes, rigid loops and dependency. Are you exporting solver deck? If possible share more details or fem deck.
