Non‐destructive orientation tracking of individual β‐Sn grains in die‐attach solder joints
This study introduces inclined scanning three‐dimensional X‐ray diffraction microscopy (i‐S3DXRD) that enables three‐dimensional orientation mapping of planar polycrystalline materials, revealing the thermal fatigue mechanism of Pb‐free solder joints.Understanding the failure mechanisms of Pb‐free solder joints during thermal cycling is a critical ...

ABSTRACT The degradation of metallic materials due to hydrogen embrittlement (HE) poses critical challenges for structural reliability. Phase‐field models offer an energy‐based approach that does not require predefined crack paths and automatically determines crack initiation, growth, and coalescence.

Limited contribution by non‐volant small mammals to regeneration in ironstone rocky outcrops
Abstract Introduction Animal‐mediated seed dispersal contributes substantially to natural regeneration in degraded areas. However, the role of seed dispersal by non‐volant small mammals (NVSM), mainly marsupials and rodents, in contributing to regeneration remains underexplored, especially in mountaintop, open‐canopy ecosystems.

Phase‐Field Fracture Simulation of Pressurized Concrete Microstructure
ABSTRACT Pressurized cracks in concrete have a significant impact on the safety and durability of concrete structures. The peak strength of concrete is reduced in the presence of pressurized cracks. However, conducting pressure‐coupled strength evaluation experiments requires extensive effort, and simulation tools can complement the time‐consuming and ...
