Analysis of Thermal Stress Induced Void Growth During Thermal Cycling
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2011
Abstract
Recent work in thermal stress induced voiding in passivated lines has focussed on the isothermal, quasi-steady state growth of existing voids. In this work, the transient growth and shrinkage of voids during the thermal cycling of narrow, passivated lines was studied. Analysis of experimental data for passivated lines demonstrates the quick buildup and evolution of a backstress at the grain boundary during heating and cooling. This backstress greatly reduces the driving force for void growth at higher temperatures and must be accounted for in stress induced void growth models for the case of appreciably varying temperatures in short time scales.
