Most intake models for dairy cows have been developed to make predictions under normal conditions, in which animals can meet their nutritional requirements. To estimate intake under constraining conditions, i.e.

Disentangling the dynamics of energy allocation to develop a proxy for robustness of fattening pigs
Background There is a growing need to improve robustness of fattening pigs, but this trait is difficult to phenotype. Our first objective was to develop a proxy for robustness of fattening pigs by modelling the longitudinal energy allocation coefficient ...

Dairy goats adjust their meal patterns to the fibre content of the diet
Few studies have investigated how meal patterns of ruminants are affected by diet fibre content. Dairy goats (N = 32) in late lactation and early gestation were housed in eight groups of four goats, with all combinations of breed (Alpine and Saanen) and ...

In ruminants, feeding behaviour variables are parameters involved in feed efficiency that show variation among individuals. This study aimed to evaluate during the first two production cycles in ruminants the repeatability of feed intake pattern, which ...

Pour une analyse systémique de la technique : exemple de la production de terre cuite architecturale
Conceptual principles of systemic theory are applied through the example of architectural terracotta. They show that the implementation of the technique, such as its representation or improvement, depends largely on social, cultural or economic factors ...

Vers une approche systémique de l'évaluation
La problématique de l'évaluation est multidimensionnelle et de ce fait elle doit être approchée d'une maniêre systémique et globale. Le systême éducatif est un tout indissociable qui englobe des inputs, des processus et des outputs en interactions ...

Animal board invited review: Quantification of resilience in farm animals
Resilience, when defined as the capacity of an animal to respond to short-term environmental challenges and to return to the prechallenge status, is a dynamic and complex trait.

Maquette virtuelle cognitive. Entre espace de représentation et espace de conception [PDF]
L’expansion du numérique a provoqué la mutation du mode de représentation traditionnel de l’architecture vers la maquette virtuelle. D’un côté, l’aptitude du modèle architecturologique de Boudon à intégrer les nouvelles technologies est questionnée.

Quantifying growth perturbations over the fattening period in swine via mathematical modelling
Background: Resilience can be defined as the capacity of animals to cope with short-term perturbations in their environment and return rapidly to their pre-challenge status. In a perspective of precision livestock farming, it is key to create informative
