ISO 11093-8 Paper and Cardboard - Determination of Natural Frequency and Flexural Modulus by Experimental Modal Analysis

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 11093-8 testing. ISO 11093-8 specifies a method for determining the flexural modulus using experimentally measured natural frequencies in the free mode of transverse vibration of cylindrical paper and cardboard cores meeting the following criteria:

  • Inner diameter: 50mm to 350mm;
  • Minimum wall thickness: 0,02 × inside diameter or at least 2,0 mm;
  • Minimum core length: 8 × inner diameter.

Experimental modal analysis is a technique used to determine the dynamic properties of a structure, such as natural frequencies, mode shapes, and damping ratios. This analysis is usually performed by stimulating the structure with an external force and measuring its response using sensors.

In the context of paper and cardboard cores, ISO 11093-8 outlines the procedure for using experimental modal analysis to determine the natural frequency and bending modulus of cores. The natural frequency is the frequency at which a structure naturally vibrates when excited, and the bending modulus is a measure of the hardness of the core.

Determining the natural frequency and bending modulus of paper and cardboard cores is important for understanding their dynamic behavior and mechanical properties. This information can be used to optimize the design and performance of cores for a variety of applications such as winding, transport and load handling.
