During the sterilization process of a typical food can, the geometric non-linear and elastic-plastic state is confronted. A derived procedure of updated lagrangian incremental formulation is proposed to simulate the deformation behaviour of the food can. The process is illustrated with a real example. Some interesting results can be noted wherein.
