AN ANALYSIS OF DOME REVERSAL IN METAL BEVERAGE CANTAINER BASED ON FINITE ELEMENT METHODS
Metal beverage containers are used in packaging foods and chemical industries. The beverage container industry is struggling to reduce the amount of material in each container, while meeting the three structural performance standards which have been established to access the adequacy of the container design. These are axial column load, drop resistance and internal pressure. This paper relates to the internal pressure standard which states that container must withstand at least 90-100psi or more internal pressure without buckling (reversal of dome). The purpose of this research is to minimize the weight of an aluminum beverage container as well as fulfilling the entire remaining design parameters such as applied loads, maximum stresses at critical locations and keeping in view all other constraints. A number of alternative solutions are analyzed at a very low cost, using simple FE analysis. Based on these results, promising designs are further analyzed using more complex but accurate FE techniques. A series of different designs are developed, analyzed and an optimum design is considered. The Crown Cork and Seal.890B design is used. The linear analysis is done using COSMOS, SOLIDWORKS and ANSYS. The results are validated using available experimental and numerical data.
