Stored grain is a mixture of grain kernels, dockage, and foreign materials. During the
handling of grain bulks, segregation is a natural tendency of the grain mixture components …

The effects of heat treatment on protein structure and in vitro digestibility in whole soybeans
with different moisture content (10.68%, 29.70%, 46.29%, and 62.05% wet basis) were …

This paper deals with studying and modeling static friction coefficient (SFC) and dynamic
friction coefficient (DFC) of wheat grain as affected by several treatments. Significance of …

Flow characterization of ground materials based on standard physical properties is not
always accurate and must be complemented with other properties that help characterize …

In this study, the flow properties of black soybean powders having different particle sizes (d
90= 1448.66, 1484.14, 1458.18, 1385.73, 1246.89, 740.06 μm) were measured, and the …

Drying and storage are two significant unit operations in the food industry and are applied to
both raw and processed products including cereal grains, oilseeds, legumes, flour, noodle …

A range of commercially-available crop seeds and food powders were tested using a Jenike
shear-tester. At low normal loads, all the materials are found to change their strength …

Three main dimensions of nut and kernel of almonds were measured. Then some
dimensional properties of nut and kernel were calculated. Effect of the moisture content on …

The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of the amount of broken kernels in
relation to the whole grains (0, 15, and 30%) and moisture content (5, 10, and 15% wet …

Segregation is an important phenomenon in bulk grain handling and has potential to cause
many grain storage problems. Distribution and segregation of kidney bean, soybean, and …
