Analytical foundations supporting the CSF pen-level transmission model.
Simulation Methodology
How the browser-based CSF pen-level dashboard computes trajectories and indicators.
- Read and validate CSF pen-wise population and epidemiological parameters.
- Initialize compartmental states (S, E, I, Q, R) for each pen.
- Iterate the CSF ODE system using forward Euler discretization.
- Compute force of infection via contact, personnel movement, and feed routes.
- Derive indicators: R₀, peak infection, outbreak duration.
- Render epidemic curves and export results.
