A Fatigue Lifetime Prediction Model for Aluminum Bonding Wires [PDF]
Metals, 2023 Electrical signal transmission in power electronic devices takes place through high-purity aluminum bonding wires. Cyclic mechanical and thermal stresses during operation lead to fatigue loads, resulting in premature failure of the wires, which cannot be reliably predicted.

Fatigue in the core of aluminum honeycomb panels: Lifetime prediction compared with fatigue tests [PDF]
International Journal of Damage Mechanics, 2013 In comparison to their weight, honeycomb composite structures have a high bending stiffness, which makes them very suited for every application such as airplanes, railway-cars and vehicles, where little weight is important. The sandwich panels consist of two thin and stiff aluminum face sheets, which are bonded to a thick and lightweight aluminum ...
