Contact stresses in gelatin spheres under compressive die loading

Gelatin spheres have been used to model stress/strain behaviour of spherical foods (e.g. fruits) during compression testing. Photoelasticity reveals differences in stress distribution within gelatin spheres depending on the way in which the spheres are supported. Moreover, these methods of support a...
