during the polishing and cleaning process steps, resulting in a degradation of the electrical and
mechanical properties [1-3].
The upper surface of the coupons was prenotched, and the mechanical properties were evaluated using the 4-pt bend (FPB) method [5] to determine adhesive fracture properties and double cantilever beam (DCB) method [6] to determine cohesive fracture properties.
The results show that polishing and cleaning with CP72B chemistry has negligible impact on the cohesive fracture energy, indicating that the dielectric film maintains its mechanical properties despite contact with the slurry under the mechanical stresses induced during polishing.
This suggests that other factors (besides particles) are playing a role in the interfacial adhesion, which requires further study.
Conclusions The effect of barrier slurry and cleaning on the mechanical properties of DEMS-based porous OSG (k=2.5)/SiCN and copper/SiCN films was determined.

Stress intensity factor.
The approach is presented through stages: detection of defects, stress-strain analysis of loaded component, characterization of material properties required for structural integrity assessment and application of convenient procedure.
As an example, in Fig. 2 is presented fracture of thick wall pressure vessel, experienced in 1964, caused by (1) presence of an undetected crack in welded joint and (2) poor fracture toughness properties in critical region, caused by improper heat treatment, which could not be determined that time [4], but post-festum.
analyzed numerically exploiting the property of J integral path independence [19].
Testing of experimental specimen of welded joint, shown in Fig. 8, with combined weld metal (OM-overmatched, UMundermatched WM), followed by clearly recognized different microstructures in the heat-affectedzone (HAZ) regions and ended by parent metals (BM) on both sides, revealed significant differences in crack resistance properties: high in BM, with expressed scattering in HAZ depending on region properties and crack tip position, and low, confirming crack behavior in Figs. 6 and 7.

The new status indirectly points that production uncertainty or manufacturing defect could be the potential factors for this adversity.
These includes loss of gloss, discoloration and hardening of the surface layer [8] and the most affected properties would be the elongation and flexural and impact strength [10].
It is assumed the in-service helmets physical and mechanical properties were equivalent to the newly produced.
This is due to the hardening of the shell outer layer after a prolonged exposure to environmental factors such as UV radiation [8].

Thus, polishability is affected by different variables such as the abrasion particles features, metallurgical factors of material and the previous surface feed marks from the milling process.
However, the presence of inclusions in the steel microstructure, which are added to increase machinability, such as non-metallic inclusions, oxides and sulphides, can diminish the polishability, depending on their size and distribution [2,3], affecting the quality of mould surface.
So, the main material properties required for application in polymer injection moulds are yield strength, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, machinability and polishability or glow finish.
Soon after, the AISI P20 steel and its variations with superior hardness and good combination of mechanical properties and low cost were introduced [4] in the mould production.
Designing, planning and conducting an experiment that simultaneously includes combinations of multiple factors and their interactions, which may affect the outcomes, is a much more efficient research methodology for empirical modelling.

A material's fracture toughness can also be affected by environmental factors such as humidity, temperature, and corrosion [4].
These fractures are induced by factors such as humid air, saltwater, and corrosive chemicals [6,7].
Many of these processes are also capable of affecting aluminium alloy and its composites [9, 8].
