The analysis of matter and energy flows consists in studying the way in which matter (including water), energy, and even information and money, move through a system, previously rigorously defined in time and space. AFME also seeks to establish links between :
the characteristics of the various parts of the system ;
system structure ;
the dynamics of its flows;
and overall system behavior (functions performed, performance, stability, resilience, etc.).
AFME therefore involves the construction of a conceptual model of the system under study, made up of processes, stocks and flows,...
