A Damage Mechanics-Based Fatigue Life Prediction Model for Solder Joints
نویسندگان
چکیده
A thermomechanical fatigue life prediction model based on the theory of damage mechanics is presented. The damage evolution, corresponding to the material degradation under cyclic thermomechanical loading, is quantified thermodynamic framework. The damage, as an internal state variable, is coupled with unified viscoplastic constitutive model to characterize the response of solder alloys. The damage-coupled viscoplastic model with kinematic and isotropic hardening is implemented in ABAQUS finite element package to simulate the cyclic softening behavior of solder joints. Several computational simulations of uniaxial monotonic tensile and cyclic shear tests are conducted to validate the model with experimental results. The behavior of an actual ball grid array (BGA) package under thermal fatigue loading is also simulated and compared with experimental results. @DOI: 10.1115/1.1536171#

Fatigue Life Prediction of Rivet Joints
Strength reduction in structures like an aircraft could be resulted as cyclic loads over a period of time and is an important factor for structural life prediction. Service loads are emphasized at the regions of stress concentration, mostly at the connection of components. The initial flaw prompting the service life was expected by using the Equivalent Initial Flaw Size (EIFS) which has been re...
متن کاملFracture mechanics-based life prediction of a riveted lap joint
In this paper, three-dimensional modeling of the fatigue crack growth profiles was performed in a simple riveted lap joint. Simulation results showed that mode I was dominated on the one side of the plates and the crack straightly grew on this side, while the other side of the plates was in a mixed-mode condition and the crack propagation path was not straight on this side. Afterward, the fract...

Vibration fatigue test and analysis methodology for flip chip solder joint fatigue life assessment have been developed by performing vibration tests with constant G-level and varying G-level input excitation. The linear cumulative damage analysis method (Miner’s rule) predicts non-conservative result for vibration fatigue life of flip chip solder joint. Finite element analysis (FEA) using a glo...
متن کاملA Damage-Mechanics-Based Constitutive Model for Solder Joints
Sn-Pb eutectic solder alloy is extensively used in microelectronics packaging interconnects. Due to the high homologous temperature, eutectic Sn-Pb solder exhibits creepfatigue interaction and significant time-, temperature-, stress-, and rate-dependent material characteristics. The microstructure is often unstable, having significant effects on the flow behavior of solder joints at high homolo...
