Composite materials have a number of properties that make them attractive for use in aerospace applications. The impact behavior of fiber reinforced composite materials is much more complex than conventional metallic structures due to a number of different failure modes on the inter laminar and intra laminar level. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of temperature and thermal residual stresses on the impact behavior and damage of glass/epoxy laminated composites. To this end, thermal stress analyses of the laminates with lay-ups [90/0/0/90] s, [90/0/45/45] s, [0/90/45/-45] s, [45/0/-45/90] s are carried out under different temperatures by using ANSYS software. Also, the impact analysis on the laminated composites was performed at the different range of impact energies under different temperatures. The specific energy values and impact parameters were obtained and compared for each type of specimens and temperatures.

In this paper, a kind of T-shaped hook-connected structure, which consists of a T-shaped plate made of two-and-a-half-dimensional woven composites and a groove structure made of T300/BMP316 laminated composites, was designed as the simulator specimen of the connection structure between the vane and the case in an aero-engine. As the bending strength and tensile strength are important mechanical properties, bending tests and tensile tests, respectively, of the T-shaped hook-connected structure were conducted to study the mechanical properties and failure modes under bending and tensile loads on web. Experimental results showed that the initial damages both occur at the root-edge, and then the damages extend to the root-middle during the bending test or extend perpendicular to the root-edge to the margin of the flange during the tensile test. Then, a strength prediction method based on the progressive damage theory was developed to simulate the mechanical properties and damage processes of the T-shaped hook-connected structure under bending and tensile loads, respectively. Compared with experimental results, the maximum error is less than 10%, and the damage modes are similar.

The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is an important tool in Thick Film Hybrid Microcircuits Manufacturing because of its large depth of focus and three dimensional capability. This paper discusses some of the important areas in which the SEM is used to monitor process control and component failure modes during the various stages of manufacture of a typical hybrid microcircuit.Figure 1 shows a thick film hybrid microcircuit used in a Motorola Paging Receiver. The circuit consists of thick film resistors and conductors screened and fired on a ceramic (aluminum oxide) substrate. Two integrated circuit dice are bonded to the conductors by means of conductive epoxy and electrical connections from each integrated circuit to the substrate are made by ultrasonically bonding 1 mil aluminum wires from the die pads to appropriate conductor pads on the substrate. In addition to the integrated circuits and the resistors, the circuit includes seven chip capacitors soldered onto the substrate. Some of the important considerations involved in the selection and reliability aspects of the hybrid circuit components are: (a) the quality of the substrate; (b) the surface structure of the thick film conductors; (c) the metallization characteristics of the integrated circuit; and (d) the quality of the wire bond interconnections.
