Many researches related to the reliability of Pb-free solder joints with PCB (printed circuit board) surface finish under thermal or vibration stresses are in progress, because the electronics is operating in hash environment. Therefore, it is necessary to assess Pb-free solder joints life with PCB surface finish under thermal and mechanical stresses. We have investigated 4-points bending fatigue lifetime of Pb-free solder joints with OSP (organic solderability preservative) and ENIG (electroless nickel and immersion gold) surface finish. To predict the bending fatigue life of Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder joints, we use the test coupons mounted 192 BGA (ball grid array) package to be added the thermal stress by conducting thermal shock test, 500, 1,000, 1,500 and 2,000 cycles, respectively. An 4-point bending test is performed in force controlling mode. It is considered that as a failure when the resistance of daisy-chain circuit of test coupons reaches more than $1,000{\Omega}$. Finally, we obtained the solder joints fatigue life with OSP and ENIG surface finish using by Weibull probability distribution.

Until a recent date, the surface finish generated in turning by the conventional cutting tool is directly related to the feed rate and the size of the tool nose radius. With this tool a large feed rate will give poorer surface finish and a large nose radius will generate a better surface finish. Recently a new concept in the tool design is introduced to achieve a better surface finish at a higher feed rate. This is the wiper tool, which has the portion of nose with infinite radius. This can remove the ridges left when the conventional tool is used. In this study two series of cutting tests with the wiper tool and the conventional tool are carried out under the various cutting conditions of cutting depth, feed rate and cutting speed. The effects of the wiper design and the cutting conditions on the surface roughness resulted are carefully examined and compared.

Frictional behavior of wire electric discharge machined surfaces of spheroidized annealed STDll steel was investigated. The surfaces were produced with a various series of finish cuts where pulse energy was reduced with increase in the number of finish cuts. Roughness and micro-hardness of the surfaces were also measured. It is observed that the increase in the number of finish cuts produces the surface exhibiting lower frictional resistance followed by higher resistance after considerable wear. Effects of finish cuts on the friction characteristics are discussed with the aid of roughness and micro-hardness of the surfaces.

Plasma organic thin film for PCB surface finish is a potential replacement of the conventional PCB finishes because of environment-friendly process, high corrosion-resistance and long shelf life over 1 year. In this study, solder joint properties of the plasma organic surface finish were estimated and compared with OSP surface finish. The plasma surface finish was deposited by chemical vapor deposition from fluorine-based precursors. The thickness of the plasma organic coating was 20 nm. Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu (SAC305) solder was used as solder joint materials. From a salt spray test, the plasma organic coating had higher corrosion resistance than the OSP surface finish. The spreadability of SAC305 on plasma organic coating was higher than that on OSP surface finish. SEM and TEM micrographs showed that the interfacial microstructure of the plasma surface finish sample were similar to that of the OSP sample. Solder joint strength of the plasma finish sample was also similar to that of the OSP finished sample.

This paper reports on the research which investigates acoustic signals acquired in turning with rough and finish simultaneously. The material is aluminum thin pipe. Two acousto-ultrasonic sensors were set on the finish and the rough bite of the CNC machine. It was first evaluated that one source was affected by the other. It was found that two signals were little affected each other, and that the acoustic signal from the finish bite was more related to the surface defects. Signals from the finish bite only were then analyzed in order to observe several types of surface defects. Second the fundamental experiments were accomplished to study the effects of machine vibration and material state. The signal characteristics due to surface defects were studied from the collected acoustic signals. The analysis was based on real time data, root mean squared average and frequency spectrum by fast fourier transform. As a result, the acoustic signals were made effects by machine condition, material structure. The acoustic signal from the finish bite was closely correlated with surface quality. Two types surface micro defects were then evaluated by the signal characteristics.

Contemporary architecture calls for a wide range of surface textures and treatments. A surface compatible with the architect's design may vary from a glass-smooth finish to one requiring special sculptured ornamentation. These surfaces require many different types of form sheathing and lining. The purpose of study development new design form and made elaborateness shape.

This paper presents a preliminary study of the influence of roughness due to marine propeller blades machining on their performance. A blade surface finish that has been roughened by corrosion, cavitation and other phenomena, leads to a power penalty. Thus propellers manufacturers tend to propose blades of great surface finish, even mirror-polished. However achieving such surface finish increases manufacturing costs. With modem manufacturing means, propellers can now be machined while preserving a good surface finish. We have studied the influence of manufacturing strategy on an aspect of hydrodynamic performance, cavitation.

The smooth surface after polishing of composite resin contributes to the patient's comfort, and appearance and longevity of the restoration. This study was performed for the quantitative analysis of the effects of the various finishing and polishing instruments on the surface roughness and reflectivity of the microfill, and hybrid composite resins. Cylindrical specimens 2mm thick and 10mm in diameter of Silux Plus, Durafill VS ; Z100, Prisma TPH, Brilliant, and Herculite XR composite resin were polymerized under the matrix strip. 18 specimens for each composite resin materials were divided into 6 groups ; 5 experimental groups were abraded with # 600 sand paper to remove resin-rich layer, except control. Thereafter, using diamond bur(Mani Dia-Burs), carbide bur(E. T. carbide set 4159), rubber point(Composite polishing kit), aluminum-oxide disk(Sof-Lex disk), polishing paste(Enhance system) ; each specimen was polished to its best achievable surface according to manufacturer's directions. Final polished surfaces were evaluated for the surface roughness with profilometer(${\alpha}$-step 200, Tencor instruments, USA) and for the reflectivity with image analyser(Omniment Image Analyser, Buehler, USA). The results were as follows. 1. Polishing paste or aluminum-oxide disk finish in the microfill, and hybrid composite resins was as smooth as matrix strip finish on the surface roughness test. 2. Polishing paste or aluminum-oxide disk finish in the microfill ; polishing paste finish in the hybrid composite resins was as reflective as matrix strip finish on the refectivity test. 3. For the polishing paste, there were no significant differences between the composite resin materials on the surface roughness and refectivity tests. 4. For the aluminum-oxide disk, the best result was obtained with the microfill composite resin on the surface roughness and reflectivity test. 5. Diamond bur, carbide bur, and rubber point were inappropriate for the final polishing instruments.

An impeller is a important part of turbo-machinery. It has a set of twisted surfaces because it consists of many blades. Five-axis machining is required to produce a impeller because of interference between tool and workpiece. It can obtain good surface integrity and high productivity. This paper proposes finish cutting method for machining impeller with 5-axis machining center and optimization of cutting condition by response surface method. Firstly, cutting methods are selected by consideration of operation characteristics. Secondly, response factors are determined as cutting time and cutting error for prediction of productivity. Experiments are projected by central composite design with axis point. Thirdly, regression linear models are estimated as single surface in the leading edge and as dual surface in the hub surface cutting. Finally, cutting conditions are optimized.
