There has been significant demand for stacked die technology during the past few years. The stacked die devices are mainly used in portable consumer products. This kind of silicon integration technology provides flexibility in space reduction, weight savings, and excellent electrical functionality. In this article, the stacked die construction was built into the leaded package. It was found that the test vehicles had full delamination at the lead-frame paddle/mold compound interface after 100 temperature cycles (−65°C to 150°C) with moisture preconditioning at level 3 (60°C at 60% relative humidity for 40 h) although the electrical test passed 1000 temperature cycles. The fishbone diagram was used to identify the possible failure root causes. The material, process, and design factors were extensively evaluated by the experiments and finite element analysis. The evaluation results showed that die attach paste voids were major factors affecting the package integrity and could produce the delamination initiation at the edge of the die attach paste and propagate down to the lead-frame paddle/mold compound interface due to high stress concentration and weak adhesion strength. The finite element analyses were implemented to address the stress distribution in the stacked die package and verified by the scanning acoustic microscope. It demonstrated that excellent package integrity could be obtained by applying the void-free die attach paste and improving the adhesion strength at the lead-frame paddle level.

Due to the high stress concentration at the root of the first active thread in threaded end closures of high pressure vessels, yielding may occur in this region during the application of the first pressure cycle or proof testing. This overstraining introduces residual stresses that influence the fatigue performance of the vessel. This paper presents a parametric analysis of threaded end closures using elastic and elasto-plastic finite element solutions. The results are used to discuss the influence of these residuals on the estimated fatigue life when the vessel is subjected to repeated internal pressure. A simple empirical method to allow for the Bauschinger effect of the material is also proposed.

High acoustic energy has the potential to cause severe acoustic induced vibration (AIV) that can lead to fatigue failure at high stress concentration locations (discontinuities) in a piping system. AIV at pipe junctions (Lateral, Tee, and Wye) and welded support attachments (trunnions and shoes) is evaluated using Finite Element Analysis. At different size pipe junctions, branch and header pipe shells may be subjected to different sound pressure. Also, inertia associated with different wall thickness(s) can lead to very different dynamic response of the two shell walls. The effect of these differences on AIV response is analyzed. Resulting response for different junction reinforcement designs is evaluated and compared to an unreinforced ‘stub-on’ configuration to assess the designs.

Femur Bone

Humans face bone fracture when they unfortunately met an accident, which requires timely medical attention for healing and repairing the fractured bone; otherwise that paralyzes their life. 3D modeling technique with computational method is very helpful at the side of doctors for healing and repairing the damaged bones. Fractional bone healing is one of the natural processes, which regain the mechanical reliability of the bone to a limited level of failures. The relationship between the biology and mechanics has introduced a new branch namely biomechanics. Various biomechanics models were used to identify the fracture for different patients and helps in the fracture treatment. The aim of this work is to find out the high stress concentration area of the femur bone, which has been extracted as image from computer tomography scanner. The retrieved noise-free femur bone image is tested by the static load condition with the help of the finite element analysis. The result obtained from the testing of different loads has been compared with the existing literature. It is found that the femur bone has tensile and compressive stress, and the neck area of the femur is at a very high stress concentration. The outcome of this work is much supportive to orthopedic surgeons in femur surgery and bone prosthesis by avoiding experiments on femur bone.

Lead-free piezoelectric (Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3 (BNT) films were deposited on 1 mm thick pure titanium(Ti) substrates by a hydrothermal method. Tensile tests were performed to quantitatively assess the adhesion strength between BNT films and Ti substrates. Ti substrates were pretreated by chemical polish and mechanical polish respectively prior to BNT film deposition. In the tensile test, the behavior of BNT film exfoliation was investigated by the replica method. The critical Ti substrate strain inducing BNT film exfoliation was determined by the aid of finite element analysis (FEM). In this study, the results revealed that BNT film exfoliations were caused by the strain of Ti substrate, and the mechanical polish pretreatment improved the adhesion of BNT film to Ti substrate.

Die crack is one of the problems in stacked die semiconductor packages. As silicon dies become thinner in such packages due to miniaturization requirement, the tendency to have die crack increases. This study presents the investigation done on a die crack issue in a stacked die package using finite element analysis (FEA). The die stress induced during the package assembly processes from die attach to package strip reflow was analyzed and compared with the actual die crack failure in terms of the location of maximum die stress at unit level as well as strip level. Stresses in the die due to coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) mismatch of the package component materials and mechanical bending of the package in strip format were taken into consideration. Comparison of the die stress with actual die crack pointed to strip bending as the cause of the problem and not CTE mismatch. It was found that the die crack was not due to the thermal processes involved during package assembly. This study showed that analyzing die stress using FEA could help identify the root cause of a die crack problem during the stacked die package assembly and manufacturing as crack occurs at locations of maximum stress. The die crack mechanism can also be understood through FEA simulation and such understanding is very important in coming up with robust solution.

Factors Affecting

Open-source 3D printer has been widely used for fabricating three dimensional products. However, this technology has some drawbacks that need to be improved such as accuracy of the finished parts. One of the factors affecting the final product is the ability of the machine to extrude the material consistently, which is related to the flow behavior of the material inside the liquefier. This paper observes the pressure drop along the liquefier by manipulating the nozzle die angle from 80° to 170° using finite element analysis (FEA) for polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) material. When the pressure drop along the liquefier is varied, the printed product also varies, thus providing less accuracy in the finished parts. Based on the FEA, it was found that 130° was the optimum die angle (convergent angle) for extruding PMMA material using open-source 3D printing.

This work focuses on the structural analysis of a damaged 9.13″ flexible pipe to pure and combined axisymmetric loads. A set of experimental tests was carried out considering one up to ten broken wires in the outer tensile armor of the pipe and the results obtained are compared to those provided by a previously presented finite element (FE) model and a traditional analytical model. In the experimental tests, the pipe was firstly subjected to pure tension and, then, the responses to clockwise and anti-clockwise torsion superimposed with tension were investigated. In these tests, the induced strains in the outer armor were measured. Moreover, the axial elongation of the pipe was monitored when the pipe is subjected to tension, whilst the twist of the pipe was measured when torsion is imposed. The experimental results pointed to a slight decrease in the stiffness of the pipe with the increasing number of broken wires and, furthermore, a redistribution of forces among the intact wires of the damaged layer with high stress concentration in the wires close to the damaged ones. Both theoretical models captured these features, but, while the results obtained with the FE model agreed well with the experimental measurements, the traditional analytical model presented non-conservative results. Finally, the results obtained are employed to estimate the load capacity of the pipe.

The ankle joint, comprised of the distal ends of the tibia and fibula as well as talus, is key in permitting movement of the foot and restricting excessive motion during weight-bearing activities. Medial ankle injury occurs as a result of pronation-abduction or pronation-external rotation loading scenarios in which avulsion of the medial malleolus or rupture of the deltoid ligament can result if the force is sufficient [1]. If left untreated, the joint may experience more severe conditions like osteoarthritis [2]. To avoid such consequences, medial ankle injuries — specifically bony injuries — are treated with open reduction and internal fixation via the use of plates, screws, wires, or some combination thereof [1, 3–4]. In this investigation, the mechanical performance of two such devices was compared by creating a 3-dimensional model of an earlier cadaveric study [5], validating the model against the cadaveric data via finite element analysis (FEA), and comparing regions of high stress to regions of experimental failure.
