A Joint NUS-IHPC Research Centre ACES Seminar You are cordially invited to attend our ACES seminar series on “Inverse Identification for Electronic Packages Using Modified Micro-GA and Reduced-basis Method” By Dr. Yang Zheng Lin Date: Time: Venue: Contact person: Friday, 26 April 2002 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM ACES Conference Room, EA-04-27, NUS Dr. Han Xu Tel : 6874 4795 Email : acehanxu@nus.edu.sg ABSTRACT New inverse analysis method is presented to identify coefficients of heat convection on boundary of microelectronic packages. This approach adopts a modified Micro Genetic Algorithm (GA) in finding the global optimum of parameters. A reduced-basis approach is introduced in the forward heat transfer analysis so as to significantly improve the efficiency in the calculation. Different identification methods are employed to identify heat convection coefficients of a typical microelectronic package. Comparisons between different methods are performed. Results show that the use of reduced-basis method together with modified GA outperforms significantly. The present method of coefficient identification is ideal for practical applications. It is efficient enough even for real time and/or online analysis of both forward and inverse problem. Dr. Yang Zheng Lin received his PhD degree from Dalian University of Technology in 1998. He is currently a Research Fellow at the Singapore-MIT Alliance.
