| Research Abstract |
In order to predict the crack growth life in lead-free microelectronics solder joints, method of arbitrary lines and finite element method program employing a new scheme for crack growth analysis are developed. Also some experimental data necessary for the practical application of this program are obtained. Above all, the data related to the crack growth rate play a key role and are obtained in terms of the maximum opening stress range. The calculated values of the crack growth life by the proposed method are in good agreement with the experimental ones. This indicates at the same time that the crack growth rate and path in lead-free microelectronics solder joints are certainly controlled, through the maximum opening stress range measured at a certain radial distance from the crack tip.
