Abstract:Checking is a recurring problem in the dry cereal products industry which involves hydromechanical and thermomechanical phenomena. This study focuses on the hydromechanical problem at constant temperature. The objective is to develop a model giving access to stress and the resulting strain fields in a rusk undergoing moisture equilibration during a 7‐day storage period in closed packaging to understand how checking occurs. A model was developed and implemented with Comsol Multiphysics. The effect of cells and … Show more
