General **recipe** for model building:

1. System conceptualization → schematic drawing.

1. System **conceptualization** → schematic **drawing**.
* Identification of _subsystems_ and disctinct regions (components).

2. State assumptions:

2. State the model **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:
+
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.
