Dynamic system modeling and decision support for grow-finish swine barn operation
Understanding both swine growth performance and swine barn management under different conditions is essential to evaluate the swine production system. The integrated effect of swine growth and swine barn management is difficult to investigate because of their complex relationships. To estimate the …

Evaluating new ventilation rate and evaporative cooling for modern swine production
… of ventilation rate (VR) in animal housing. New swine HMP data revealed considerable differences from previously reported data. This project determined new design VR for swine barn and evaluated differences from previously recommended VRs. The phases of swine production evaluated included …

Development of dynamic computational model for an integrated farming system
… This dynamic system model for IFS integrates swine production, swine barn energy requirements, anaerobic digestion (AD) processes, anaerobic digester heat requirements, combined heat and power (CHP) production, and nitrogen requirements for crop production. In this system, swine manure is …
