Duck Eggshell Crack Detection by Nondestructive Sonic Measurement and Analysis
Duck eggs are a good source of essential nutrients for the human body. However, transportation, processing, and handling can easily cause cracks in the eggshells. These cracks can lead to microbial contamination, reducing the shelf life and compromising food safety. In this study, a method for the n...
