Numerical modelling of morphological changes of food plant materials during drying

Karunasena, H. C. P; Senadeera, W. (CRC press:New York, 2016)

Food plant materials, particularly fruits and vegetables, when undergoing drying are subjected to higher levels of morphological changes, leading to alteration of various physical properties characterizing the dried food ...
A physics-informed neural network-based surrogate framework to predict moisture concentration and shrinkage of a plant cell during drying

Batuwatta-Gamage, C.P.; Rathnayaka, C.M.; Karunasena, H. C. P; Jeong, H.; Wijerathne, W.D.C.C.; Karim, M.A.; Welsh, Z.G.; Gu, Y.T. (2022)

This paper presents a Physics-Informed Neural Network-based (PINN-based) surrogate framework, which can couple time-based moisture concentration and moisture-content-based shrinkage of a plant cell during drying. For this, ...
Three-dimensional (3-d) numerical modelling of morphogenesis of dehydrated fruits and vegetables

Rathnayaka Mudiyanselage, C.M.; Karunasena, H.C.P.; Gu, Y.T.; Guan, L.; Senadeera, W. (Taylor & Francis, 2018)

Food drying is one of the key techniques of preserving fruits and vegetables. Grid-based methods and meshfree methods are the two most viable techniques applicable for numerical modeling of food structures during drying. ...
