| Resumo | |
The behavior of chickens in broiler houses is affected by many conditions that involve, from the dimensions and design of the house, to the real-time control of temperature and humidity. A lot of experience is available which provides useful recommendations leading to reasonable efficiency of broiler houses. Trying different alternatives in practice is, or course, very expensive. For this reason, computer simulation becomes an extremely useful tool. Presently, standard computers make it possible to build and run simulation models in which each broiler is considered as a single ``particle{''} whose behavior is subject to the interaction with other broilers and the environment. The objective of this paper is to introduce, discuss, and analyze a new computational model, that, to the best of our knowledge, is the first of this type. The model considers the displacements of the chickens as being analogous to the motion of physico-chemical particles (atoms or molecules), relying on Langevin dynamics and taking temperature, air speed, humidity, house dimensions, chicken population, availability of eaters, and water drinking systems into consideration. The parameters of our model were tunned both using extreme and standard assumptions on the behavior of chickens in a broiler house. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. (AU) | |
