Through-silicon via (TSV) technology is expected to overcome the limitations of I/O density and helps in enhancing system performance of conventional flip chip packages. One of the challenges for producing reliable TSV packages is the stacking and joining of thin wafers or dies. In the case of the conventional solder interconnections, many reliability issues arise at the interface between solder and copper bump. As an alternative solution, Cu-Cu direct thermo-compression bonding (CuDB) is a possible option to enable three-dimension (3D) package integration. CuDB has several advantages over the solder based micro bump joining, such as reduction in soldering process steps, enabling higher interconnect density, enhanced thermal conductivity and decreased concerns about intermetallic compounds (IMC) formation. Critical issue of CuDB is bonding interface condition. After the bonding process, Cu-Cu direct bonding interface is obtained. However, several researchers have reported small voids at the bonded interface. These defects can act as an initial crack which may lead to eventual fracture of the interface. The fracture could happen due to the thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) mismatch between the substrate and the chip during the postbonding process, board level reflow or thermal cycling with large temperature changes. In this study, a quantitative assessment of the energy release rate has been made at the CuDB interface during temperature change finite element method (FEM). A parametric study is conducted to analyze the impact of the initial crack location and the material properties of surrounding materials. Finally, design recommendations are provided to minimize the probability of interfacial delamination in CuDB.

This paper is devoted to the dynamic modeling of micropolar gyroelastic beams and explores some of the modeling and analysis issues related to them. The simplified micropolar beam torsion and bending theories are used to derive the governing dynamic equations of micropolar gyroelastic beams from Hamilton’s principle. Then these equations are solved numerically by utilizing the finite element method and are used to study the spectral and modal behaviour of micropolar gyroelastic beams.

Based on the two-dimensional (2D) elastic theory without enforcing any beam assumption, an efficient semi-analytical scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) is proposed to solve the bending and free vibration responses of composite laminated and sandwich beams under the mechanical load. The scaled center is placed at infinity, which produces the accurate result by discretizing only the longitudinal direction of the beam structure treated as a one-dimensional (1D) discretization problem. A new kind of 1D high-order spectral element shape functions with the advantages of high accuracy and superior convergence is introduced in SBFEM coordinate system to approximate the geometric model and corresponding variables. The principle of weighted residual in conjunction with the Green’s theorem are applied to obtain the SBFEM governing equation of each layer with respect to radial displacement fields. The solution of equation is indicated analytically by a matrix exponential function, which can be accurately solved by using the precise integration technique (PIT). Finally, an effective and simple stiffness matrix is obtained. By comparing two examples with the solutions based on the finite element method (FEM), the results show that the proposed method has good accuracy and rapid convergence with only a few meshes. The numerical examples are given to investigate the parametric effects of the stacking sequence, thickness ratio, boundary condition, and load form on the variation of the displacement, stress and natural frequency. The results validate that the present technique is also applicable to the complex beam structure with softcore layer inside.

The cohesive zone model (CZM) has been widely used for numerical simulations of interface crack growth. However, geometrical and material discontinuities decrease the accuracy and efficiency of the CZM when based on the conventional finite element method (CFEM). In order to promote the development of numerical simulation of interfacial crack growth, a new CZM, based on the wavelet finite element method (WFEM), is presented. Some fundamental issues regarding CZM of interface crack growth of double cantilever beam (DCB) testing were studied. The simulation results were compared with the experimental and simulation results of CFEM. It was found that the new CZM had higher accuracy and efficiency in the simulation of interface crack growth. At last, the impact of crack initiation length and elastic constants of material on interface crack growth was studied based on the new CZM. These results provided a basis for reasonable structure design of composite material in engineering.

We use fuzzy finite element method (FEM) to analyze the impact of cold wave on face slab cracking of a concrete-faced rockfill dam (CFRD). The static response of dam and the temperature field of face slab are calculated using deterministic FEM since some observed and test data can be obtained. Some parameters of Goodman contact element between face slabs and cushion material are selected as fuzzy variables, and the fuzzy FEM is used to calculate fuzzy stress of face slab. The fuzzy FEM is implemented using vertex method based on the extension principle. Through the analysis of two selected calculation cases of cold wave, it is shown that the calculated cracking direction and cracking zone caused by thermal stress are similar to those of the observed cracks. This proves that the cold wave that caused swift air temperature drop is an important reason for the cracking of face slab. According to these analysis results, some cracking prevention measures are then proposed.

Dispersion curves for waveguide structures are an important prerequisite for the implementation of guided wave-based nondestructive evaluation (NDE) approach. Although many methods exist, each method is only applicable to a certain type of structures, and also requires complex programming. A Bloch theorem-based finite element method (FEM) is proposed to obtain dispersion curves for arbitrary waveguides using commercial finite element software in this paper Dispersion curves can be obtained for a variety of structures, such as homogeneous plates, multilayered structures, finite cross section rods and honeycomb sandwiches. The propagation of guided waves in honeycomb sandwich plates and beams are discussed in detail. Then, dispersion curves for honeycomb sandwich beams are verified by experiments.

Air spring is used for the suspension system and it affects the vehicle stability and riding comfort by improving the impact-relief, braking, and cornering performance. Air Spring is comprised of the upper plate, lower plate, and rubber sleeve. Rubber sleeve is the composite material, which is made up of combination of rubber and Nylon, and the characteristics are changed according to the shape of rubber-sleeve, the angle of reinforcement cord. In this study, the distribution of internal stresses and the deformation of rubber composite material are analyzed through the nonlinear finite element method. The result showed that the internal maximum stresses and deformations about the changes of cord angle caused the more the Young's modulus decrease, the more maximum stress reduced.
