• In the main window, right-click and select New > Folder.
• Give a name to the folder (e.g. coupling slugs), which will be your project folder.

Then, since it is a TransAT–OLGA coupled simulation, a folder where the two simulators can
exchange data at the coupling boundary interface is needed. If TransAT and OLGA are run on
the same machine, a separate folder where both OLGA and TransAT will have access needs to be
created. To create a coupling data folder

• Open the explorer by clicking Start , then select Computer.

• Use the explorer to define the place where you want to create your coupling data folder.
For example, Select Desktop on the left.
• In the main window, right-click and select New > Folder.

• Give a name to the folder (e.g. communication), which will be your coupling data folder.
