Experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of plug velocity, plug temperature, and film temperature on the compression resistance of a plug-assist vacuum formed container using high-impact polystyrene. Plug velocities of 0.15, 0.20, and 0.27 m/s; plug temperatures of 25Π, 60Π, 100Π, 123Π,
## Abstract A temperature and strain rate dependent model for the thermoforming process of amorphous polymer materials is proposed. The polymeric sheet is heated at a temperature above the glass transition temperature then deformed to take the mold shape by the means of an applied pressure. The app
