Thesis Defense: Joseph Carter; Automation, Improvement, and Sensitivity Analysis of 3D Parameterized Maize Stalk Models

Joseph Carter is a second year masters student in the Crop Biomechanics Lab. His work focused on the computational modeling of 3D parameterized maize stalk models using FEA. Joseph’s work may enable future researchers to design maize stalk geometry to increase stalk strength. Joseph will defend his thesis on October 22, 2024 at 3:30PM in EB346.
