Surface micromachined structures with high aspect ratios are often utilized as sensor platforms in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices. These structures generally fail by stiction or adhesion to the underlying substrate during operation, or related initial processing. Such failures represent a major disadvantage in mass production of MEMS devices with highly compliant structures. Fortunately, most stiction failures can be prevented or repaired in a number of ways. Passive approaches implemented during fabrication or release include: (1) utilizing special low adhesion coatings and (2) processing with low surface energy rinse agents. These methods, however, increase both the processing time and cost and are not entirely effective. Active approaches, such as illuminating stiction-failed microstructures with pulsed laser irradiation, have proven to be very effective for stiction repair [1–5]. A more recent and promising method, introduced by Gupta et al. [6], utilized laser-induced stress waves to repair stiction-failed microstructures. This approach represents a logical extension of the laser spallation technique for debonding thin films from substrates [7–9]. The method transmits stress waves into MEMS structures by laser-irradiating the back side of the substrate opposite the stiction-failed structures. This paper presents an experimental study that compares the stress wave repair method with the thermomechanical repair method on identical arrays of stiction-failed cantilevers.

The attenuation of stress wave induced by impact load in multi-layered thin cylindrical rods has been investigated and analyzed. Firstly, based on stress wave propagation theory, the one dimension solution of the response of stress wave in three-layered media has been given. Secondly, a three-layered thin cylindrical rod has been established through FEM, and the propagation and attenuation of stress wave in it has been analyzed. The analytical and numerical results showed that the stress wave attenuation could be achieved by using multi-layered media.

Drillstring is the most important tool in petroleum drilling engineering. Alternating stress has been found to be responsible for the premature failure of drillstring. Propagation of stress wave, induced by collision between tool-joints of drillstring and borehole wall, is studied in this paper. The condition that all the tool-joints of drill pipes (DPs) strike borehole wall at the same time has been considered. Because of symmetry, the middle cross section of the DP is simplified as fixed end, and mechanical model is established as the beam with both ends fixed. Propagation of lateral displacement wave and stress wave in the DP is investigated by means of Eigen-frequency method and the Finite Element Analysis software ANSYS. The theoretic results coincide with those obtained from numerical modeling very well and also explain the drillstring accidents in gas fields.
