It is important to use appropriately designed package for reduction of the damage of perishable fruits and vegetables. We evaluated three types of packages for strawberry on the vibration characteristics and on the damage of fruits under sinusoidal vertical vibration. The acceleration transmissibility between the fruit and the vibration table was obtained from the displacement values measured by laser displacement meters under various vibration conditions. The damage levels of each fruits were observed at 0.6G with 7-35Hz. The effect of the frequency on the acceleration transmissibility was found to be different among the types of packages, and the acceleration level affected the transmissibility. In addition, damage levels of strawberries showed high correlation with the acceleration transmissibility of central fruits in packages (r2=0.75).
