“…Corrugated paperboard as a sandwich structure, being lightweight, high stiffness‐to‐weight ratio, environmentally friendly, and economic advantage, is mainly used to make corrugated box and widely used in transport packaging. A great deal of theoretical and experimental studies has been done to investigate the mechanical properties of corrugated paperboard, such as compressive strength and crush strength, bending defection and flexural stiffness, creasing behaviour, creep property and recoverability, cushioning property, vibration transmissibility, and energy absorption properties . The finite element method simulation was applied to study mechanical behaviours such as stability and collapse of corrugated board panels, elastic behaviour of corrugated paperboard, predictions for the ultimate failure, and buckling and transverse shear .…”

A series of 3‐point bending fatigue tests were conducted to investigate the bending fatigue behaviour of flute type B and C corrugated paperboard samples under cyclic loading. The S‐N curve was obtained. The fatigue failure of corrugated paperboard may be described by both Basquin‐type and exponential‐type S‐N curves; however, the exponential‐type S‐N curve is more appropriate. The stiffness is gradually degraded with almost same energy dissipation in most stress cycles, but it decreases abruptly with the enlarged energy dissipation when the testing cycle is very close to the ultimate cycles of fatigue failure. The corrugated board deforms constantly under the action of cyclic loading, and no visible crack appears. The fatigue failure modes and mechanisms are same for the corrugated boards with B‐flute and C‐flute; however, the S‐N curve of corrugated board is closely related to the flute structure. The results obtained in this paper may be applied to the dynamic design and accelerated vibration test of stacked corrugated boxes.

“…Although previous studies have been done on the mechanical behaviors of these packaging structures under static compression [13][14][15][16], they mainly focused on the mechanical behaviors of a corrugated board box itself. Other papers presented results and brief reviews of designing and modeling the stackability of cardboard boxes using a finite element method (FEM) [17][18].…”

Corrugated board is one of the most important and most popular packaging materials worldwide for transporting goods. Due to its hygroscopic behavior, it has a tendency to creep when subjected to stress under a constant load, which can ultimately result in loss of strength, with possible damage to products. The creep behavior of corrugated board is still a largely underresearched area. This paper attempts to examine the long-term behavior of corrugated board during use more precisely than before, and presents the first step and results of the research process. For the measurement, a compact and high-precision individual test rig was developed and used, in order to reduce the side effect of coupled systems, that is, to avoid their mutual influence. This paper successfully presents results reproducible with the described test rig apparatus for determining the creep behavior of corrugated board. It will be continued to publish further results of the research in the near future.

“…In recent years, alternative methods were developed to obtain cushion curves in a significantly shorter time for testing (Burgess, 1990;1994;Sek et al, 1997;2000). Representatives of alternative methods are the dynamic stress-energy method (Burgess, 1990;1994) and the single compression data method based on a quasidynamic compression test (Sek et al, 1997;2000).…”

Purpose: The objective of this study was to develop cushion curves models and analyze the cushioning performance of multi-layered corrugated structures (MLCS) using a method based on dynamic stress-energy relationship. Methods: Cushion tests were performed for developing cushion curve models under 12 combinations of test conditions: three different combinations of drop height, material thickness, and static stress for each of four levels of energy densities between 15 and 60 kJ/m 3 . Results: Dynamic stress and energy density for MLCS followed an exponential relationship. Cushion curve models were developed as a function of drop height, material thickness, and static stress for different paperboards and flute types. Generally, the differences between the shock pulse (transmitted peak acceleration) and cushion curve (position and width of belly portion) for the first drop and the averaged second to fifth drop were greater than those for polymer-based cushioning materials. Accordingly, the loss of cushioning performance of MLCS was estimated to be greater than that of polymer-based cushioning materials with the increasing number of drops. The position of the belly of the cushion curve of MLCS tends to shift upward to the left with increasing drop height, and the belly portion became narrower. However, depending on material thickness, under identical conditions, the cushion curve of MLCS showed an opposite tendency. Conclusions:The results of this study can be useful for environment-friendly and optimal packaging design as shock and vibrations are the key factors in cushioning packaging design.
