In this work, the first reliability results of Thermal Cycling Tests (TCT, air-air test) and Thermal Shock Tests (TST, liquidliquid test) on medium power electronic components are discussed. The influence of dwell times, extremes temperatures and mean temperature is investigated. This study is based on statistical data correlated with information coming from failure analysis and confirmed by a basic FEM analysis.

This article describes a new type of test that easily creates a thermal shock combined with mechanical loading by using standard laboratory equipments. The method consists of rapidly heating a ring initially at -175 โข C by circulating hot water through judiciously placed holes. It allows to obtain,
The shock initiation of the insensitive high explosive LX-17, which contains 92.5% triaminotrinitrobenxene (TAT@ and 7.5% Kel-F binder, was studied under two simulated accident conditions: initially confined charges were heated to 250ยฐC and shocked; and unconfined charges were thermally cycled betwe
