There are several ways to model multi-ply materials such as paperboard. Using a solid model with a thin domain for each layer is an obvious solution, but COMSOL also provides specific tools for modeling composite materials: the equivalent single layer (ESL) and layerwise theory (LWT) methods.

This model is used in the blog post "Modeling Multi-Ply Materials with Composite Materials Technology" by Dr. Eric Linvill:
