At the present time, among the avian eggs, especially the Chicken Eggs are the basic food items that are consumed extensively and therefore have a large marketing. Due to the fact that the egg content is packed naturally with a thin and fragile outer shell structure, a variety of precision transportation and packaging techniques are needed to be developed in order to reduce egg loss. In this study, a chicken egg is modeled in the mean dimensions discussed in the literature and mechanical behaviors at different drop angles are investigated using the finite element method. The study results are compared with each other to determine critical angles with respect to minimum and maximum stress values in order to create a source for transportation techniques and protective packaging designs.
