Bienvenue sur le simulateur du modèle à flux constants.

Ce modèle est basé sur notre cas d'étude simplifié : un groupe de guépards dans un parc national géré, où les entrées et sorties sont contrôlés par les gestionnaires (translocation entre parcs).

Fonctionnement :

Le [Variable d'état] qui représente l'effectif de guépards (le nombre d'individus).
Les [Flux] (B, I, D, E) sont le nombre fixe d'individus qui entrent ou sortent à chaque pas de temps.
Variables forçantes : Les décisions des gestionnaires sont les "variables forçantes" qui rendent ces flux constants.

Votre mission : Utilisez les curseurs pour régler les conditions et lancez la simulation en cliquant sur le bouton "SIMULATE" en haut à droite, pour observer comment l'effectif évolue sur le graphique !

A random walk demonstration using an ABM. As individuals drink more they become more intoxicated and their walk becomes more random. And when they drink to much it finally kills them.
