The main Interface
The main frame of ModelBuilder is very simple. It contain three menus,
a toolbar with 3 buttons, and several text editing boxes for the
specification on the model.
The menus
The first menu is
the file menu. It contains the standard open, save, save as, close and
exit options. These are pretty much self-explanatory.
The
second menu is the analysis menu. In this menu You will find to options: Uncertainty Analysis Phase plot.
The uncertainty analysis option opens the uncertainty
analysis windows, for sensitivity and Uncertainty analyses
The third and last is the help menu and it jus contains the entries for this help and the about message.
The Toolbar
The toolbar contains three buttons. The first one is the run button, which starts the simulation.
The
second button shows a typeset version of the differential equations in
the model (this feature requires the latest version of matplotlib).
The
third button shows the results of a simulation on a spreadsheet. From
there you can select variables to plot separately and save the results
to a csv(comma separated values) file.
The Main Frame
The
main frame is designed for the easy specification of a model
consisting of a system of differential equations. This interface will
be covered in a later section where the definition of models is
explained.
