Grain kernel damage during threshing: a comprehensive review of theories and models

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Engineering
Grain threshing is aimed at separating the grain from the inedible chaff. However, mechanical forces often damage grains, impacting their quality, market value, and germination ability. This comprehensive review examines theories and models developed to

Second law of thermodynamics and the failure of rock materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The relation of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to some failure and fracture theories of rock mechanics is investigated. The basic concepts are given to connect failure to the properties of material equations describing the elastic properties.
