The vibration fatigue durability of eutectic Sn37Pb and near-eutectic Pb-free Sn3.9Ag0.6Cu solders is quantified, based on test data available from the literature [1]. The tests use random broad-band excitation (between 20Hz & 2000Hz), on selected SAC and SnPb surface mount interconnect styles. In the test, step-stress excitation was applied in the out-of-plane direction by increasing the RMS e...

We report experimental measurements on the rheology of a dry granular material under a weak level of vibration generated by sound injection. First, we measure the drag force exerted on a wire moving in the bulk. We show that when the driving vibration energy is increased, the effective rheology changes drastically: going from a non-linear dynamical friction behavior --weakly increasing with the...

DC bias will cause abnormal vibration of transformers. Aiming at such a problem, transformer vibration affected by DC bias has been studied combined with transformer core and winding vibration mechanism use multi-physical field simulation software COMSOL in this paper. Furthermore the coupling model of electromagnetic-structural force field has been established, and the variation pattern of inn...

The strong vibration of reciprocating pump in oil transportation station pipeline system will seriously affect the safe running of the equipment and pipeline. And the resonance between pipe and equipment will cause more severe damage. Therefore before the formal operation of station, not only static stress analysis, but also modal analysis and vibration analysis are necessary for the reciprocat...

The author reviewed in this paper current microneurographic findings on the responses of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and skin sympathetic nerve activity (SSNA) to the environment in humans with special reference to vibration-induced white finger (VWF). 1) MSNA was enhanced by +Gz gravitational input, while being suppressed by simulated weightlessness through the baroreflex mechanis...

fabrication, characterization and application of micro-/nano-rods/wires are among the hottest topics in materials science and applied physics. micro-/nano-rod-based structures and devices are developed for a wide-ranging use in various fields of micro-/nanoscience (e.g. biology, electronics, medicine, optics, optoelectronics, photonics and sensors). it is well known that the structure and prope...

in the present study, modelling and vibration analysis of carbon nanotubes/ fiber/ polymer composite microplates are investigated. the governing equations of the carbon nanotubes/ fiber/ polymer composite microplates are derived based on first order shear deformation plate theory, rather than other plate theories, due to accuracy and simplicity of polynomial functions. the modified couple stres...

This paper develops an assessment methodology based on vibration tests and finite element analysis (FEA) to predict the fatigue life of electronic components under random vibration loading. A specially designed PCB with ball grid array (BGA) packages attached was mounted to the electro-dynamic shaker and was subjected to different vibration excitations at the supports. An event detector monitor...

In this study, the vibration behavior of functional graded (FG) circular and annular nanoplate embedded in Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change is studied. It is assumed that a uniform radial magnetic field acts on the top surface of the plate and the magnetic permeability coefficient of the plate along its thickness are assumed to vary according to the volume distribu...

The study develops a methodology that combines the vibration failure test, finite element analysis (FEA), and theoretical formulation for the calculation of the electronic component’s fatigue life under vibration loading. A specially designed plastic ball grid array (PBGA) component with built-in daisy chain circuits is mounted on a printed wiring board (PWB) as the test vehicle for the vibrati...
