Abstract This paper reports on the application of Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) technique in vibration measurement of turbine blading. Using the time-averaged mode of ESPI, the first six modes of a turbocharger blade with airfoil profile were identified. The effect of the complicated profile of the blade was established by studying simplified model blades. Coupled modes were identified and successfully separated. Experimental results are compared with those obtained using finite element analysis.

In this paper, two experimental techniques, Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry and Stroboscopic Interferometry, and two different finite element analysis packages are used to measure or to analyze the frequencies and mode shapes of a micromachined, cross-shaped torsion structure. Four sets of modal data are compared and shown having a significant discrepancy in their frequency values, although their mode shapes are quite consistent. Inconsistency in the frequency results due to erroneous inputs of geometrical and material parameters to the finite element analysis can be salvaged by applying the finite element model updating procedure. Two updating cases show that the optimization sequences converge quickly and significant improvements in frequency prediction are achieved. With the inclusion of the thickness parameter, the second case yields a maximum of under 0.4% in frequency difference, and all parameters attain more reliable updated values.

Bone tissue material nonlinearity and large deformations within the trabecular network are important for the characterization of failure behavior of trabecular bone at both the apparent and tissue levels. Micro-finite element analysis (μFEA) is a useful tool for determining the mechanical properties of trabecular bone due to certain experimental difficulties. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of bone tissue nonlinear material properties on the apparent- and tissue-level mechanical parameters of trabecular bone using μFEA. A bilinear tissue constitutive model was proposed to describe the bone tissue material nonlinearity. Two trabecular specimens with different micro-architectures were taken as examples. The effects of four parameters, i.e., tissue Young's modulus, tissue yield strain in tension, tissue yield strain in compression, and post-yield modulus on the apparent yield stress/strain, tissue von Mises stress distribution, the amount of tissue elements yielded in compression and tension under compressive and tensile loading conditions were obtained using nine cases for different values of those parameters by totally 36 nonlinear μFEA. These data may provide a reference for more sophisticated evaluations of bone strength and the related fracture risk.

Abstract Phenol-resorcinol-formaldehyde (PRF) and one-component polyurethane (PUR) resins were used to manufacture single lap joint samples corresponding to EN 302-1. 3D electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI), which enables measurement of spatial displacement of less than 0.1 μm, was used during tensile shear experiments to observe full-field in-plane and out-of-plane deformation of the lap joint samples and to detect strain concentrations in the vicinity of glue lines. Finite element analysis was performed to validate ESPI measurements. In general, ESPI measurements showed that in a lap joint experiment a very small volume of material close to the ends of the overlapping area is highly strained. ESPI and finite element analysis pointed out that PUR glue lines are characterised by much higher shear deformations than PRF glue lines, especially at the ends of the overlapping area. However, due to the lower Young's modulus of PUR resin compared to PRF, higher shear strains but lower shear stress concentrations can be expected in PUR, which was confirmed by the FE model.

The current state of the art in coronary stent technology, tubular structures used to keep the lumen open, is mainly populated by metallic stents coated with certain drugs to increase biocompatibility, even though experimental biodegradable stents have appeared in the horizon. Biodegradable polymeric stent design necessitates accurate characterization of time dependent polymer material properties and mechanical behavior for analysis and optimization. This manuscript presents the process for evaluating material properties for biodegradable biocompatible polymeric composite poly(diol citrate) hydroxyapatite (POC-HA), approaches for identifying material models and three dimensional solid models for finite element analysis and fabrication of a stent. The developed material models were utilized in a nonlinear finite element analysis to evaluate the suitability of the POC-HA material for coronary stent application. In addition, the advantages of using femtosecond laser machining to fabricate the POC-HA stent are discussed showing a machined stent. The methodology presented with additional steps can be applied in the development of a biocompatible and biodegradable polymeric stents.

Along with the reduction in semiconductor chip size and enhanced performance of electronic devices, high input/output density is a desired factor in the electronics industry. To satisfy the high input/output density, fan-out wafer-level packaging has attracted significant attention. While fan-out wafer-level packaging has several advantages, such as lower thickness and better thermal resistance, warpage is one of the major challenges of the fan-out wafer-level packaging process to be minimized. There have been many studies investigating the effects of material properties and package design on warpage using finite element analysis. Current warpage simulations using finite element analysis have been routinely conducted with deterministic input parameters, although the parameter values are uncertain from the manufacturing point of view. This assumption may lead to a gap between the simulation and the field results. This paper presents an uncertainty analysis of wafer warpage in fan-out wafer-level packaging by using finite element analysis. Coefficient of thermal expansion of silicon is considered as a parameter with uncertainty. The warpage and the von Mises stress are calculated and compared with and without uncertainty.
