AbstractDetermination of the mechanical properties of MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) materials is necessary for accurate device design and reliability prediction. This is most unambiguously performed using MEMS-fabricated test specimens and MEMS loading devices. We describe here a wafer-level technique for measuring the bend strength, fracture toughness, and tensile strength of MEMS materials. The bend strengths of surface-micromachined polysilicon, amorphous silicon, and polycrystalline 3C SiC are 5.1±1.0, 10.1±2.0, and 9.0±1.0 GPa, respectively. The fracture toughness of undoped and P-doped polysilicon is 1.2±0.2 MPa√m, and the tensile strength of polycrystalline 3C SiC is 3.2±1.2 GPa. These results include the first report of the mechanical strength of micromachined polycrystalline 3C SiC.

AbstractThis paper presents and analyzes the responses of non-alloy structural steel (1.0044) subjected to uniaxial stresses at high temperatures. This research has two important determinants. The first one is determination of stress-strain dependence and the second is monitoring the behavior of materials subjected to a constant stress at constant temperature over time. Experimental results refer to mechanical properties, elastic modulus, total elongations, creep resistance and Charpy V-notch impact energy. Experimental results show that the tensile strength and yield strength of the considered material fall when the temperature rises over 523 K. Significant decrease in value is especially noticeable when the temperature rises over 723 K. In addition, engineering assessment of fracture toughness was made on the basis of Charpy impact energy. It is visible that when temperature raises then impact energy increases very slightly.

Abstract UNIFLUX 70 is a continuous flux-cored welding electrode (wire) for welding in carbon dioxide shielding gas in the flat groove and horizontal fillet positions. It is used widely in shipbuilding and other fabricating industries to weld carbon steel and provides around 82,000 psi tensile strength and around 50 foot-pounds Charpy V-notch impact at 0 F. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fracture toughness. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: CS-74. Producer or source: Unicore Inc., United Nuclear Corporation.
