Abstract

Finite element analysis on coarse grained vector machines of residual stresses in plastic 1C packages during surface mounting processes Sung Yi*, Harry H. Hilton^ & M.

The subrou- tine for element stiffness calculation is dominated by vector operations and achieves about 432 million floating-point operations per second
