摘要: Fruits are susceptible to various forms of mechanical damage after harvesting. Compression-induced bruising is the most common damage incurred, and it crucial to mitigate this for reducing economic losses associated with fruit. This study investigates the impact of compression on kiwifruit. Experiments combined with finite element method simulations were conducted to analyze the relationship between compression distance and bruise volume of kiwifruits under different storage times. This study's results found that compression distance and storage time are linearly positively correlated with the bruise volume of kiwifruit. The difference in bruising volume between simulation results and actual results is less than 14 %. The aforementioned results indicate that our employed compression model is capable of simulating real compression scenarios. This study provides significant theoretical insights into predicting and evaluating potential damages that may occur during post-harvest processing of kiwifruits under compression conditions.
