Discrete Element Modeling and Experimental Validation of Soil Covering and Compaction Processes in the Precision Sowing of Panax notoginseng
Highlights A DEM model of the soil covering–compaction process during the precision sowing of Panax notoginseng was established. The interactions among the seed, soil, and soil covering–compaction device were simulated using a DEM. The relative error between the DEM simulation and soil bin tests was only 6.0...
