Finite Element Analysis for Static Cushion Performance of (EPE) and Honeycomb Paperboard Combination

Article Preview

Abstract:

The solid modeling method for Expandable Polyethylene (EPE) and honeycomb paperboard combination structure was studied. The static compression of the structure was simulated by finite element method (FEM). The effect of the thickness of the EPE on the structure was analyzed, and the stress distribution and deformation characteristics were obtained. The results showed that the thickness of EPE had no significant effect on the yield stress of the structure, but the corresponding strain was increased with the increase of the thickness of EPE. The EPE could protect honeycomb paperboard from damage. The results of finite element analysis were in good agreement with the experimental results.
