Accurate mode-separated energy release rates for delamination cracks
نویسنده
چکیده
Babu ska and Oh introduced a new approach, called the method of auxiliary mapping (MAM), that can effectively handle singularities in the framework of the p-version of the FEM. In this paper, this new approach is generalized so that it can yield highly accurate energy release rates for the cracks in composite materials. The results obtained by this method are more accurate than those obtained by the conventional methods (quarter-point singularity elements). Moreover, it is demonstrated that the mode-separated energy rates of interlaminar cracks of a laminate virtually converge when its layers are of the same material and have different fiber orientations. 2003 Elsevier B.V.

On the propagation and coalescence of delamination cracks in compressed coatings: with application to thermal barrier systems
Coatings subject to residual compression eventually fail by buckle-driven delamination. The phenomenon is most vivid in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) used in gas turbines. The failure evolution commences with the formation of a large number of small cracks at geometric imperfections near the interface. These cracks spread upon thermal exposure, particularly upon thermal cycling, because of th...
متن کاملInterfacial Delamination Near Solder Bumps and UBM in Flip-Chip Packages
Using detailed finite element models, a fracture analysis of solder bumps and under bump metallurgy (UBM) in flip-chip packages is carried out. Our objective is to identify likely fracture modes and potential delamination sites at or near these microstructural components. In order to study flip-chips, whose dimension spans from sub-micron thickness UBM layers to several millimeters wide package...
متن کاملDelamination Susceptibility of Coatings Under High Thermal Flux
Delamination of coatings initiated by small cracks paralleling the free surface is investigated under conditions of high thermal flux associated with a through-thickness temperature gradient. A crack disrupts the heat flow thereby inducing crack tip stress intensities that can become critical. A complete parametric dependence of the energy release rate and mode mix is presented in terms of the ...

In flip-chip package, the mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients between the silicon die and packaging substrate induces concentrated stress field around the edges and corners of silicon die during assembly, testing and services. The concentrated stresses result in delamination on many interfaces on several levels of structures, in various length scales from tens of nanometers to hundreds o...
