Description Current findings is that microstructure of the solder does influence lifetime of teh joint and needs to be considered in model predictions.
Exploitation Route The infuence of microstructure needs to be considered on subsequent reliability predictions. Publications are in preperation to explain this. But in summary, this requires metrology techniques combined with a multi-scale modelling approach.
