Article: New data from M.K. Abdullah et al illuminate research in plastics and composites.

"The numerical and experimental investigations of three-dimensional (3-D) mold filling during encapsulation process in stacked-chip scale package (S-CSP) are presented. The finite difference method (FDM) based on Navier-Stokes equations has been employed for the flow analysis in the mold cavity," investigators in Nibong Tebal, Malaysia report.

"The mold flow is assumed to be non-Newtonian and non-isothermal. The proposed models can take care of polymer rheology with cure effect (Castro-Macosko model) and without cure effect (Cross model). A package with five, six, and seven overhang stacking dies without wire bonds is considered for simulation. The epoxy molding ...
