Analytical Prediction of Package Collapse Loads - Basic considerations

Ristinmaa, Matti LU orcid ; Ottosen, Niels Saabye LU and Korin, Christer (2012) In Nordic Pulp & Paper Research Journal 27(4). p.806-813
Abstract
Calculation of Box Compression Resistance (BCR) is a challenging task and here the possibility of an engineering approach is considered. The strive has been towards obtaining a simple and general predictive tool with as few parameters as possible and still obtaining an accurate estimate of the BCR. The model proposed is based on the concept of dividing the package into panels and corner panels. With these remarkably few structural elements it is possible to obtain simple explicit formulas where the only material parameters are given by standard tests in terms of short span compression test and bending resistance. The BCR for different packages is then obtained by a simply summation of the load from the panels and corner panels. A... (More)

The BCR for different packages is then obtained by a simply summation of the load from the panels and corner panels. A validation against experimental data indicates that, despite its remarkably simplicity, the predictions are very accurate for a wide range of package types, package dimensions, board qualities and loading directions.
