Abstract
In this study, we propose a model based on the finite element method to study the behavior of corrugated cardboard boxes subjected to shocks. To reduce the preparation of the CAD model and the computational times, we have developed an elastoplastic homogenization model for the corrugated cardboard. The homogenization consists in representing a corrugated cardboard panel by a homogeneous plate. A through-thickness integration on a periodic unit cell containing a flute and two flat linerboards is proposed. Each constituent is considered as an orthotropic elastoplastic material with specific hypotheses for the corrugated medium. The model was implemented in the finite element software ABAQUS. Damage boundary curve (DBC) for corrugated cardboard boxes are defined by experimental testing and finite element simulations using the proposed model. The numerical results obtained are in good agreement with the experimental results.
