Frictional Impact Modeling of a Cereal Thresher

Abstract

The article presents a study which describes a model for cereal threshing that incorporates friction to recognize the frictional impact that occurs between the crop surface and threshing cylinder. The author states that a computer aided software written in visual basic programming language for the development of the model. He concludes that the result of the output shows that there is a relationship between the crop or machine parameters and the performance of the model.
