Modeling Shearing and Bending Behavior of Kiwifruit Branches Using the Discrete Element Method

Returning pruned branches into the field is a key procedure in kiwifruit cultivation. It utilizes discarded branches and aids in orchard management. Shearing and bending behaviors dominate the mechanized process of branch return; however, current research lacks appropriate modeling methods for these...
