  1. On the Create Concept form, select Create new from the drop-down list.
  2. Type a name for the simulation concept in the adjacent text field.
  3. In the Description field, optionally give a description for your simulation concept. This could contain the following:
    • Purpose of the simulation concept and supporting arguments.
    • Observations and data.
    • References to supporting data.
  4. Click Apply to create the simulation concept and keep the form open, or click OK to create the concept and proceed to the Assign Data form where you can assign the data.
