ABSTRACTAs in other engineered structures, fracture occasionally occurs in integrated microelectronic circuits. Fracture can take a number of forms including voiding of metallic interconnect lines, decohesion of interfaces, and stress-induced microcracking of thin films. The characteristic feature that distinguishes such fracture phenomena from similar behaviors in other engineered structures is the length scales involved, typically micron and sub-micron. This length scale necessitates new techniques for measuring mechanical and fracture properties. In this work, we describe non-contact optical techniques for probing strains and a microscopic “decohesion” test for measuring interface fracture resistance in integrated circuits.

Deck Slab

An experimental investigation is performed on various cold-formed profiled sheets to study the connection behavior of composite deck slab actions using bolted shear connectors. Various profiles like dovetailed (or) re-entrant profiles, rectangular profiles and trapezoidal profiles are used in the present investigation. This experimental investigation deals with the evaluation of various parameters such as the ultimate load carrying capacity versus deflection, load versus slip, ductility ratio, strain energy and modes of failure in composite slab specimens with varying profiles. From the test results the performance of dovetailed profiled composite slabs’ resistance is significantly higher than the other two profiled composite deck slabs.

Wedge Splitting

The wedge splitting test specimens with three series of different relative crack length were used to study the influences of relative crack length on the fracture toughness of common concrete. The suitable formulation for fracture toughness of concrete with different relative crack length was gotten on comparing between fracture toughness test results and computation results of the model developed from Hu formula.

Compressive Strength Of Concrete

This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of the compressive strength of concrete cubes containing termite mound soil. The specimens were cast using M20 grade of concrete. Two mix ratios for replacement of sand and cement are of 1:1.7:2.7 and 1:1.5:2.5 (cement: sand: aggregate) with water- cement ratio of 0.45 and varying combination of termite mound soil in equal amount ranging from 30% and 40% replacing fine aggregate (sand) and cement from 10%,15%,20% were used. A total of 27 cubes, 18 cylinders and 6 beams were cast by replacing fine aggregate, specimens were cured in water for 7,14 and 28 days. The test results showed that the compressive strength of the concrete cubes increases with age and decreases with increasing percentage replacement of cement and increases with increasing the replacement of sand with termite mound soil cured in water. The study concluded that termite mound cement concrete is adequate to use for construction purposes in natural environment.

Cfst Columns

Abstract: 7 square steel tubular columns were tested to discuss the ultimate axial bearing capacity, ductility performance and the steel consumption under stiffened by steel belts and binding bars of different cross-sections. Test results indicate that only by increasing fewer amounts of steel usage, stiffened square CFST columns with binding bars can not only improve the overall effects of restraint and alleviate regional local buckling between the binding bars, but also improve the bearing capacity of concrete filled square steel tubular columns. The utility benefits and the economical benefit is considerable, deserving extensive use.
