Degradation Estimation and Prediction of Electronic Packages using Data Driven Approach

Recent trends in automotive electronics such as automated driving will increase the number and complexity of electronics used in safety-relevant applications. Applications in logistics or ridesharing will require a specific year of service rather than the conventional mileage usage. Reliable operations of the electronic systems must be...

Customized data-driven RANS closures for bi-fidelity LES–RANS optimization

Multi-fidelity optimization methods promise a high-fidelity optimum at a cost only slightly greater than a low-fidelity optimization. This promise is seldom achieved in practice, due to the requirement that low- and high-fidelity models correlate well. In this article, we propose an efficient bi-fidelity shape optimization method for...

In Situ  Failure Detection of Electronic Control Units Using Piezoresistive Stress Sensor

Recent advancements in automotive technologies, most notably autonomous driving, demand electronic systems much more complex than those realized in the past. The automotive industry has been forced to adopt advanced consumer electronics to satisfy the demand, and thus it becomes more challenging to assess system reliability while adopting the...

Expansion and degradation of cement paste in sodium sulfate solutions

External sulfate attack is a progressive degradation process that may cause expansion, cracking, loss of binder cohesion and increased permeability in cementitious materials. Crystallization pressure theory has often been referred to as the most likely mechanism. However, thus far the stress causing the expansion has not been quantified. In...
