RUFAS.simulation_engine module

class RUFAS.simulation_engine.SimulationEngine

Bases: object

The SimulationEngine class is responsible for orchestrating the entire simulation process for RuFaS. It manages the simulation’s lifecycle, advancing time, executing daily and annual routines, and logging simulation progress.

Attributes

weatherWeather

The weather object that contains the weather data.

timeRufasTime

The RufasTime object that contains methods for accessing and manipulating the simulation time.

feed: Feed

The Feed object that stores the information for the feeds managed by the farm, and the methods for storage.

herd_manager: HerdManager

The HerdManager object that manages all animal in the herd.

manure_manager: ManureManager

The ManureManager object that sets up and manages different manure management components including manure handlers, reception pits, manure separators, and manure storage treatments.

field_manager: FieldManager

The FieldManager object that manages all fields in the simulation.

Methods

simulate()

Execute the simulation process.

__init__() → None

Initializes the simulation engine.

simulate() → None

Executes the simulation.

_run_simulation_main_loop() → None

The main loop for simulation.

_daily_simulation() → None

Executes the daily simulation routines.

_formulate_ration() → None

Formulates the ration for the animals.

generate_daily_manure_applications() → list[ManureEventNutrientRequestResults]

Requests nutrients from the manure manager for each field in the simulation.

Returns

list[ManureEventNutrientRequestResults]

A list containing the ManureEvents and corresponding NutrientRequestResults to be applied to fields.

_advance_time() → None

Advances time and increments simulation_day.

_run_post_annual_routines() → None

Writes the annual report to the output files Flushes the data in the output object Resets the state for the following year

_annual_simulation() → None

Executes the annual simulation routines.

annual_reset() → None

Resets all annual variables that require reset.

annual_mass_balance(time: RufasTime) → None

_initialize_simulation() → None

Instantiates the simulation object by requesting data from the Input Manager.
