Issues with normal and cohesive surface contact definition for model with Johnson-Cook material model in Abaqus

I am modelling a 3D solid model of simply supported sandwich plate with foam core, the core is modelled as Johnson-Cook material model with damage definitions, so the element deletion can be acheived. I tried using tie constraints between the core and face sheets, but due to the deletion of elements in the core at the interface, the face sheet is penetrating into the core beyond the supports. I tried using nodal surfaces and surface interactions, which avoids this issue but after defining the cohesive propeties for the interaction, the analysis is shutting abruply.
