Micro-grid methods were applied to measure displacements in 90° ply in CFRP cross-ply laminates with only transverse cracks or with both transverse cracks and delaminations. The COD (crack opening displacement) of the transverse cracks were also measured. Micro-grids were printed on the specimen edge surfaces by using the photo-lithography technique. The displacement fields of the specimen edge surface obtained from the experiment were compared with McCartney's [1] and Lee et al.'s [2] analyses which predicted the displacement field of a cross-ply laminate with only transverse cracks. Furthermore these analyses were modified to consider the existence of delamination.

AbstractElectromigration experiments have been carried out on simple Cu dual-damascene interconnect tree structures consisting of straight via-to-via (or contact-to-contact) lines with an extra via in the middle of the line. As with Al-based interconnects, the reliability of a segment in this tree strongly depends on the stress conditions of the connected segment. Beyond this, there are important differences in the results obtained under similar test conditions for Al-based and Cu-based interconnect trees. These differences are thought to be associated with variations in the architectural schemes of the two metallizations. The absence of a conducting electromigrationresistant overlayer in Cu technology, and the possibility of liner rupture at stressed vias lead to significant differences in tree reliabilities in Cu compared to Al.

Abstract Unidirectional cord-rubber specimens in the form of tensile coupons and sandwich beams were used. Using specimens with the cords oriented at 0°, 45°, and 90° to the loading direction and appropriate data reduction, we were able to obtain complete characterization for the in-plane stress-strain response of single-ply, unidirectional cord-rubber composites. All strains were measured by means of liquid mercury strain gages, for which the nonlinear strain response characteristic was obtained by calibration. Stress-strain data were obtained for the cases of both cord tension and cord compression. Materials investigated were aramid-rubber, polyester-rubber, and steel-rubber.
