TL;DR: The residual stress and Young's modulus of 3C silicon carbide (SiC) epitaxial films were measured by load-deflection measurements using suspended SiC diaphragms fabricated with silicon micromachining techniques as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The residual stress and Young's modulus of 3C silicon carbide (SiC) epitaxial films deposited on silicon substrates were measured by load-deflection measurements using suspended SiC diaphragms fabricated with silicon micromachining techniques. The film's residual stress was tensile and averaged 274 MPa while the in-plane Young's modulus averaged 394 GPa. In addition, the bending moment due to the residual stress variation through the thickness of the film was determined by measuring the deflection of free-standing 3C-SiC cantilever beams. The bending moment was in the range of 2.6 x 10 exp -8 -4.2 x 10 exp-8 N m.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the overall flexural buckling control of composite column strips using piezoceramic actuators and showed that by applying a controlled voltage to the actuators, a reactive moment will be induced at the column centre thereby removing the lateral deflections and enforcing the column to behave in a perfectly straight manner.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Rayleigh-Ritz approach for the study of the free vibration of systems comprised of rectangular plates is presented; the choice of the deflection functions for the component plates is simplified through the use of the concept of artificial springs being introduced at the joints between the plates and at the system boundaries; the shape functions for each component are thus those for a fully free plate.

TL;DR: In this article, a mesh-free method is presented to analyze the static deflection and natural frequencies of thin and thick laminated composite plates using high order shear deformation theory, where the problem domain is represented by a set of properly scattered nodes and no element conformability is required.
