Model Setup

This section describes how to build a finite element model. In general, the following building process is used:

•	Create collectors

•	Obtain line and surface geometry from an external file, or hand digitize the data

•	Reconcile conflicts in the geometry and prepare it for use

•	Build the model by using element-building panels

•	Verify the quality of the model

•	Create boundary conditions and systems

The following building processes are described:
