This study focuses on enhancing the comprehensive utilisation of rice straw by proposing a vibration-assisted compression technology, with the aim of resolving inherent issues in traditional baling, such as uneven compression and low density. This study designed a multi-point vibration-assisted compression test rig and established a vibration-enhanced compression mechanical model based on the physical properties of rice straw. By integrating discrete element method (DEM) simulations with bench testing, the optimal length-to-width ratio of 1:1 was identified for achieving superior compaction quality. A systematic analysis was conducted to evaluate the effects of vibration point configuration, frequency, and amplitude control on straw bale integrity. The results of the DEM simulations demonstrated that vibration-assisted compression significantly enhanced the compaction uniformity and stability of rice straw. The dimensional stability coefficient and pressure transmission rates of the straw bales reached 88.25% and 58.04%, respectively, validating the efficacy of the vibration-assisted compression technique. This study provides innovative concepts and theoretical foundations for optimising the design of straw baling and in-field collection equipment. It holds critical significance for advancing the resource-efficient utilisation of agricultural residues and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
