Fracture Properties of Lead Free Solder Joints under Dynamic Loading ConditionsIndranath Dutta, Washington State University, DMR 0939392University), • TRAINING • 2 graduate students (Babak Talebanpour and Zhe Huang) are participating • 1 post-doctoral associate (Dr.Uttara Sahaym) is participating • OUTREACH • Undergraduate student Sean Seekins from the University of Maine participated Research Experience for Undergraduate students (REU) project in May-July 2012. Mr. Seekins was trained on metallographic sample preparation, SEM, EBSD and statistical analysis of solder microstructures. • Pullman High School student Dongyang Chen interned at Professor Dutta’s lab from Jun 2011 to Aug 2011. He was trained on metallographic sample preparation, SEM, operating vacuum system and statistical analysis of solder microstructures. Undergraduate student Sean Seekins is doing EBSD to characterize the solder microstructure. High School student Dongyang Chen is polishing metallographic samples of lead-free solder
