MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF FUNCTIONING OF THE BIOTECHNICAL SYSTEM PROCESS MECHANICAL SHEEP SHEARING
For developing long-range directions for improving the technological process of sheep shearing a mathematical model of the functioning of biotechnical systems of this process is proposed. In modelling we used the scheme of random Markov processes, widely used in queueing theory. We propose a solution of the system of differential equations included in the mathematical model. Analysis of the results of the solutions allows us to identify problematic aspects of effective functioning of complex biotechnological system, to assess the reliability of the links included in the system. Eliminating these problematic issues will make for receiving the products (wool) in larger quantities and of better quality. While the assessment of the reliability of the "machine" link will allow to determine the range of the primary technical challenges faced by designers and manufacturers of mechanical sheep shearing.
