Collaborating components in mesh-based electronic packaging

From the model geometry creation to the model analysis, the stages in between such as mesh generation are the most manpower intensive phase in a mesh-based computational mechanics simulation process. On the other hand the model analysis is the most computing intensive phase. Advanced computational hardware and software have significantly reduced the computing time - and more importantly the trend is downward. With the kind of models envisaged coming, which are larger, more complex in geometry and modelling, and multiphysics, there is no clear trend that the manpower intensive phase is to decrease significantly in time - in the present way of operation it is more likely to increase with model complexity. In this paper we address this dilemma in collaborating components for models in electronic packaging application.
