Finite element analysis of the mechanical properties of apples.
Author(s) : FRANO M., BROZMAN D.
Type of article: Article
Summary
Experimental nondestructive laser Doppler vibrometry and the finite element method were used to determine the resonant frequencies of apples. The results of laser Doppler vibrometry and the finite element simulation were examined. The second resonant frequency, modulus of elasticity and the firmness index decreased gradually during storage period.
