How to define a mechanical law with cohesive elements

How to define a mechanical law with cohesive elements

How to define a mechanical law with cohesive elements

(OP)
I am new to abaqus v6.6. Could any one please guide me how can I simulate the debonding behaviour (traction sepration elements) of two materials which are submitted by an undeformable pyramide to the interface? I would like to generate a mechanical law to allow the debonding of the interface. I have already created a thin part of cohesive elements but I don't know which constraints and mechanical properties I need to put between the parts.

Thank you!
Regards
