| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, we have proposed the new method to evaluate damage of fruit during transportation, based on the field measurement, the laboratory experiment, and the numerical simulation. The proposed method is adopted the time- and temperature-dependent modeling of elasticity. We then conducted the parametric studies with respect to the effect of distribution time, temperature, varieties of peach, and stiffness of fruit cap on the energy absorption. The proposed method might enable us to optimize the property of the energy absorber packing, including the fruit cap and the corrugated box.
