Abstract :
A finite element (FE) modeling of coverboard is conducted, and the deflection and stresses of the coverboard for intended application are discussed. Based on the FE analysis, a feasible thickness value of the coverboard which satisfies the deflection requirement is recommended for potential manufacturing.
