Golden Delicious, Granny Smith and Starcrimson varieties of apples were chosen for the tests. A special pendulum unit has been used for impact test. Plastic and wood materials have been placed for contact surface. Apples were dropped from different heights. Each apple impacted symmetric two points and two areas that were determine for each height. Impact surface have been placed perpendicularly. After impact, colour change of damaged regions and oxidation areas of each sample have been determined by using a digital camera periodically. These processes have been repeated until the oxidation area determined clearly. Images were evaluated with image analysis software. Relationships between recorded data were determined statistically.trMekanik ZedelenmeElmaGörüntü AnaliziDeformasyonFizikomekanik ÖzelliklerMechanical DamageApplePhysicomechanic PropertiesmasterThesis
