Evaluation of visco-elastic properties of conditioned wheat kernels and their doughs using a compression test under small strain

摘要

BACKGROUND: The aim of this research was to evaluate the visco-elastic properties of conditioned wheat kernels and their doughs by applying the compression test under a small strain. Conditioned wheat kernels and their doughs, from soft and hard wheat classes were evaluated for total work (W-t), elastic work (W-e) and plastic work (W-p).
