Call for papers: Damage Mechanics of Electronic Materials

Call for papers: Damage Mechanics of Electronic Materials

A special issue of International Journal of Materials and Structural Integrity

This special issue is dedicated to damage in electronic materials; these include solder material, copper pads, semiconductor materials, packaging materials, photonic materials etc. The electronics industry is progressing fast and new materials and applications are introduced daily. Damage to, and reliability of, some of these applications, such as those in aerospace, medical and healthcare, are critical to society.

Suitable topics include but are not limited to:
  • Experimental and theoretical studies of damage in electronic materials
  • New damage modelling and simulation techniques
  • Damage prevention in electronic materials
  • Reliability, durability and failure of electronic materials
  • Constitutive modelling of electronic materials
  • Microstructural evolution of electronic materials
  • Damage in micro and nano scale devices
Important Date
The deadline for submitting the manuscripts is: 4 November 2007
