The relation between static and quasi‐dynamic stress‐strain compression data and the peak acceleration observed in the impact test for cushioning pads made of corrugated fibreboard is discussed. As a result, a predictive model of cushioning properties of such pads based on static and quasi‐dynamic compression data obtained from experiment has been developed. The model represents an original approach to the presentation of cushioning data. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
