CONTACTS 1. INTRODUCTION This document contains release notes for ATENA version 2025 All bugs and problems should be reported by e-mail to cervenka@cervenka.cz. This is the first official ATENA version including the new preprocessor 2025 for ATENA Engineering. This new preprocessor unifies the 2D and 3D Engineering versions into a single user friendly environment, which works for both 2D and 3D modelling. 2. INSTALLATION First make sure that your ATENA hardlock is connected to your computer. It is recommended to uninstall any previous versions of ATENA software from your computer. In some cases it may be necessary to manually remove the directory "c:\Program Files\CervenkaConsulting". Execute the program ATENA_V2024_Install.exe, which is located on your distribution medium. This can be either a CD or a compressed archive, if you downloaded the program from the Internet. The installation program will guide you through the installation process. The intallation sometimes needs to upgrade some of your system files. In this case you will be asked to restart your computer. For a silent intallation, i.e., no questions, default settings, you can run the installer with the /S switch. The installer language follows system language and preselects czech Engineering UI in case of czech Windows environment. To choose the installer language manually, you can use the command line switches /EN for english and /CS for czech. 2.1 Pre-processor This new version ATENA 2025 brings a new pre-processor that combines the robustness of ATENA Science with the simplicity of ATENA 3D Engineering. If compared to the existing ATENA 2D & 3D Engineering, it contains the following main improvements: - Combination of 2D and 3D modelling and preprocessing into a single environment - Support for curved NURBS lines and surfaces - Stronger compatibility with ATENA Science - Import of *.gid models - Scripting support using Python programming language - Import of iges CAD data format. Ifc format expected in the subsequent releases - Support for layers as in other modelling programs - Possibility to develop user-defined material libraries and materials - Support for construction process modelling in both 2D and 3D - Improved visualization and post-processing capabilities - Enhanced user interface for easier and more intuitive modeling - Advanced meshing algorithms for faster and more accurate results - Expanded range of boundary conditions and load types - Enhanced contact and interface modeling capabilities - Stability and performance for large and complex models - Integration with external tools and software for seamless workflow - Comprehensive documentation and support to aid users in utilizing the new features and capabilities - Durability models for reinforcement corrosion and alkali-silica reaction - Modelling and simulation of 3D concrete printing - BIM based internal data format - AtenaStudio program for unique runtime visualization and control - Fully built on 64-bit technology, supporting larger computer memory capacity and speed - The new 2024 Engineering preprocessor support currently only Static analysis. The other solutions modules are available only in ATENA Science using GiD preprocessor, other ATENA solutions modules: creep, dynamic and transport will be introduced gradually in subsequent versions and upgrades. ATENA 2024 uses ATENA Studio for runtime analysis visualization and post-processing. 2.2 AtenaStudio Advanced graphical user interface for ATENA. Combines simple and intuitive user interface known from ATENA Engineering and advanced features of AtenaWin. It can be used for 2D and 3D calculations as well as visualization and postprocessing results. 2.3 ATENA Science ATENA-GiD Interface If this component is selected, interface modules for data exchange between ATENA and GiD will be installed on your computer. GiD can be used as a 3D and 2D pre- and post-processor for ATENA. Currently, the postprocessing is limited in some respects in GiD. The post-processing can also be done in AtenaWin or Atena3DPost. Only the demo version of GiD is currently distributed with the ATENA software. The demo version is limited to 1000 elements. GiD can be used to prepare numerical models for very complex structures. It also supports imports from various modelling standards. The full licence of GiD can be obtained from ATENA distributors. More information about GiD can be obtained at the internet address: http://www.gidhome.com/ During the installation you will be prompted if you want to install demo version of GiD and ATENA-GiD interface. If you want to use ATENA along with GiD please select the appropriate boxes. ATENA-GiD problem type scripts are suited for the GiD versions included in the particular ATENA installer in GiD versions, for details, see GiD\Problemtypes\Atena\Readme.txt 2.3 Installation of NetHasp network hardlock. This section describes how to install the network hardlock for program ATENA. If you had requested a network version of ATENA, you received a red NetHasp hardlock. This hardlock can be plugged into the USB port of an arbitraty computer in your local area network (LAN). The program ATENA can then be installed on any computer connected to this network and running Windows 10/11 system (64 bit). When ATENA is executed on a client computer, it first checks if a valid Hasp hardlock is connected to the computer. If it cannot find a hardlock on the local computer it searches the network for a NetHasp hardlock. If you have problem to access netrwork license: Please Submit the ip adress of the computer with network license to: On the client computer at site: http://localhost:1947/_int_/config_to.html (Access to Remote License Managers - Remote License Search Parameters) After the NetHasp is located, the program attempts to log into the hardlock. If there are more workstations currently using ATENA then is the allowed limit, the login is refused and ATENA cannot be used. In order to use the network hardlock, the red NetHasp hardlock key must be connected to at least one computer in the LAN, and the NetHasp License Manager must be running on this computer. It is important to realize that the computer with the network hardlock and NetHasp license manager must be running, in order for the client computers to be able to access it and log into the NetHasp. Some problems may occur, if for some reason an ATENA sesion on a client computer fails to end correctly, due to a computer or program crash. In this case, the program did not log out of the NetHasp License Manager, and one license can be blocked for others to use. There are two solutions to this problem. Either ATENA can be started again and the blocked license will be freed after the program is correctly terminated. Or NetHasp License Manager can be stopped and restared again. This will reset the number of available licenses back to the original number. This should be done, however, only at times when there are no clients using ATENA. It is important to note that if ATENA is executed several times on a single computer, this scenario will consume only one license in the NetHasp License Manager. 3.
