Mechanical Resonance Within Red Delicious Apples and Its Relation to Fruit Texture
Journal ArticleDOI
An Objective Evaluation of Changes in Firmness of Ripening Bananas Using a Sonic Technique
TL;DR: In this paper, the resonant frequencies of cylindrical specimens of flesh from Valery bananas were measured and Young's modulus of elasticity was calculated using a sonic technique, which is defined as the ratio of stress to strain, it should measure resistance to force and hence the firmness of a material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of Moisture in Corn Kernels by Near-Infrared Transmittance Measurements
Essex E. Finney,Karl H. Norris +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the near-infrared transmittance (T) of individual kernels of corn over the spectral region from 700 to 1100 nm and linearly correlated with percent moisture in the kernel.

Volatile composition of mcintosh apple juice as a function of maturity and ripeness indices
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between volatile levels in the juice of fresh apples, determined by GLC headspace vapor analysis, and other objective indices of maturity and ripeness was established.
