New physical model for lifetime estimation of power modules

TL;DR: A physical model for lifetime estimation of standard power modules is proposed based on Clech's algorithm for simulation of stress-strain solder response under cyclical thermal loading and on the solder deformation mechanism map used to define the dominant failure mechanism under observed stress-temperature conditions.
