The calculateddisplacements at two distinctive moments were compared respectively with those obtained by an elastic solution for either incompressible or compressible solid.

Cavities and small cracks on the cross-section of the specimen were carefully observed by a scanning laser microscope. Moreover, direct current electrical potential method (DC-EPM) was applied in order to evaluate non-destructively the distribution of internal cracks. The distribution evaluated by DC-EPM agrees well with the actual one. (Edited author abstract) 9 Refs.展开更多

Two different solders are considered, namely, Sn37Pb and Sn3.5Ag. The stress and strain response of fine pitch devices soldered joints was investigated by using finite element method based on Garofalo-Arrheninus model. The simulated results indicate creep distribution of soldered joints is not uniform, the heel and toe of soldered joints, the area between soldered joints and leads are the creep concentrated sites. The similar phenomena of stress curves simulated based on Garofalo-Arrheninus model and Anand equations is confirmed, and the creep strain value of Sn3.5Ag soldered joints is lower than that of Sn37Pb soldered joints. Thermal cycling results show that Sn3.5Ag strongly outperforms Sn37Pb for QFP devices under the studied test condition. This is well matched with the experimental outcome analyzed. In addition, the soldered devices were tested by micro-joints tester, the tensile strength of Sn3.5Ag soldered joints is found to be higher than that of Sn37Pb soldered joints. By analyzing the fracture microstructure of soldered joints, it is found that fracture mechanism of Sn3.5Ag soldered joints is toughness fracture, while fracture mechanism of Sn37Pb soldered joints includes brittle fracture and toughness fracture. The results of this study provide an important basis of understanding the mechanical properties of fine pitch devices with traditional Sn37Pb and Sn3.5Ag lead-free soldered joints.展开更多

The user subroutine CREEP has been programmed for ABAQUS. The fiber breakage results in a new crack. The results show that the stress concentration factor resulted from the fiber breakage increases with the creep time. The creep damage takes place near the crack, and then grows in the matrix along a certain angle, up to the total failure. The influences of the ratio of modulus of the fiber to the matrix (Ef/Em) on the creep deformation, damage and stress distributions have been studied. With the increasing Ef/Em, the damage in the matrix increases. Analysis on the different ductility of matrix shows that the creep damage of low ductile matrix composites is higher than high ductile matrix composites.展开更多
