was created at the same time when the volumes were created using the “VSWEEP” command in<br />

ANSYS. This command guarantees a coincident node and mesh at the interfaces of different<br />

volumes. Figure 5.7 is a close-up view of the meshed model, specially the fine mesh at the solder<br />

joint due to the interest of the solder joint fatigue study.<br />

5.2.4 Boundary Conditions<br />

The use of a slice model involves a choice on the part of the analyst on the boundary<br />

constraints to be applied at the slice plane. The plane is neither a free surface nor a true<br />

symmetry plane. The reasonable compromise of coupling the y-displacements of the nodes<br />

on the slice plane was chosen. This has the effect that the slice plane is free to move in the y-<br />
