Topic: BOND SLIP MODEL

We are working on cyclic behaviour of gravity load designed beam-column joints and while incorporating the bond slip model for reinforcement we found memory bond material in ATENA 3D manual, but we are not able to implement the same in analysis. Can you suggest the way in which this particular model can be incorporated and what are its advantages for structures under cyclic loading

Dear mayanktripathi,
please run the ATENA Update Check utility to download the current ATENA version, 5.1.1. While the memory bond has already been available for some time in the solution core and through the ATENA-GiD GUE of ATENA Science, it's addition into ATENA Engineering 3D is a very recent change.
