Experimental Assessment of the Elastic Properties of Exocarp–Mesocarp and Beans of <i>Coffea arabica</i> L. var. Castillo Using Indentation Tests

Experimental Assessment of the Elastic Properties of Exocarp–Mesocarp and Beans of <i>Coffea arabica</i> L. var. Castillo Using Indentation Tests

The development of selective coffee harvesting technologies requires detailed knowledge of the geometrical, physical, and mechanical properties of the subsystems of the coffee bush, including the elastic properties of the substructures of fruit and the coffee bean, which are directly related to the...
