Falling damage is the most common form of sustained by kiwifruit during process picking and post-processing, it difficult to conduct a quantitative analysis this phenomenon through traditional experimental methods. In order deeply understand sensitivity falling collision damage, finite element numerical simulation method was used evaluate predict harvesting. First, we obtained appearance characteristics reverse engineering technology determined geometric mechanical property parameters physical mechanics experiments. Then, according fruit tissue structure, multiscale model, including skin, pulp, core, constructed simulate effects different heights, angles, contact surface materials on accuracy model verified Finally, based results, Box-Behnken design employed within response methodology establish prediction for drop across materials. The results showed that maximum relative error between speed change using high-speed camera 5.19%. high rationality in energy distribution, with value hourglass not exceeding 0.08% internal energy. On material large elastic modulus, higher height larger angle will significantly increase risk bruise. When steel plate, 1 m, 90°; bruise reached 6716.07 mm

In the handling or processing process, fruits are easily crushed by external loads. This type of damage in fruit often leads to internal pulp browning and rotting, with severity largely dependent on tissue’s geometric mechanical properties. kiwifruits, their thin skin dark-colored flesh, it is particularly challenging observe analyze caused extrusion through traditional experimental methods. The objective this research construct a multi-scale finite element model encompassing skin, core measuring properties kiwifruit, assess predict characteristics under compression, verify accuracy experiments. results indicated that kiwifruits demonstrated different compressive strengths directions during compression. strength axial direction was higher than radial direction, there little difference between long short directions. flesh tissue most vulnerable followed core. At strain levels below 5%, no noticeable kiwifruit. However, when exceeded began manifest some tissue. To maintain quality storage transportation, stacking height should not exceed 77 48 53 direction. analysis showed established can effectively simulate behavior compression loads, which helpful for deeper understanding provides theoretical basis technical guidance minimizing handling.

The bruising of fruits occurs at various stages, including picking, transportation, and sale. For with large kernels that occupy a significant portion their overall volume, considering the impact kernel is crucial in elucidating mechanisms controlling bruise formation. This study employs reverse engineering to develop composite finite element model loquat peel, flesh, kernels. Bruise formation during collisions analyzed from perspectives contact force, equivalent stress, energy, susceptibility, aiming reveal role fruit core process. In this paper, we propose use 3D printing technology accurately quantify measurement for results showed maximum internal energy between steel/wood were essentially consistent, but all exceeded those observed when using rubber. Due blocking stress transmission by kernel, susceptibility loquats increases height before decreasing. elucidates mechanism provides methods ideas research precise complex characteristics.
