Measuring the compressive modulus of elasticity of pith-filled plant stems

BACKGROUND: The compressional modulus of elasticity is an important mechanical property for understanding stalk lodging, but this property is rarely available for thin-walled plant stems such as maize and sorghum because excised tissue samples from these plants are highly susceptible to buckling. Th...
