# Model building steps
+
+
General **recipe** for model building:
+
1. System conceptualizaion -> schematic drawing.
+
* Identification of _subsystems_ and disctinct regions (components).
+
2. State assumptions:
+
* Model customizations and simplifications.
+
* Need to demonstrate their _validity_!
+
* Also identify geometrical _symmetries_.
+
3. Identify extensive properties (extensities) and their conservation.
+
4. Formulate balance equations:
+
1. Write with the general conservation equations (invariants).
+
2. Simplify these equations for computer implementation:
+
* Expand the differential operators.
+
3. Add auxiliary conditions (BCs + ICs).
+
4. Adimensionalize / normalize the equations.
+
5. Computer implementation.
+
6. Test (analysis of) results and validate model.
