Simulations of various stretch blow and blow moldings of axisymmetric PET bottles has been carried out using ABAQUS. A creep constitutive model with material data developed for a thermoforming process was used in the finite element analysis. Simulations using shell and solid elements were compared w

In this study, a viscoplastic FEM simulation of the stretch blow molding process is presented. The material's behavior at elevated temperature is assumed to be strain-rate-dependent, and a non-Newtonian creeping material model is employed to specify the strain-rate-sensitive characteristic of the ma
In this paper, the e$ciency and accuracy of contact search algorithms for the blow molding simulation were discussed. In order to increase the e$ciency of the contact search, we proposed and implemented three kinds of global search algorithms and compared them with two existing methods in terms of b
## Abstract A mathematical simulation of the blowβmolding cycle has been developed by combining general conservation principles along with appropriate constitutive relations for the material. A model of the parison formation stage has been devised by considering the competing effects due to swell a
