Determination of Biomechanical Parameters and Development of an Improved FEM Model for Perennial Alfalfa (<i>Medicago sativa</i> L.) Roots

Determination of Biomechanical Parameters and Development of an Improved FEM Model for Perennial Alfalfa (<i>Medicago sativa</i> L.) Roots

Grassland degradation and reduced yields are often linked to the root soil composite of perennial alfalfa roots. This study introduces a novel modeling approach to accurately characterize root biomechanical properties, assist in the design of soil-loosening and root-cutting tools. Our model conceptu...
