Finite element simulation of stretch forming of aluminium-polymer laminate foils used for pharmaceutical packaging

Pharmaceutical high barrier blister packages are manufactured from aluminium-polymer laminate foils (e.g. consisting of PA-Al-PVC layers). By a cold stretch forming process cavities are formed. The aim of this work is to determine a homogenized elastic-plastic description of the laminate by micromec...
