Development of an alternative rework process for ceramic ball grid array 256 (CBGA256) assembly by Chua, Kai Meng.

“…Examination of the samples after 500 temperature cycles revealed that cracks were initiated at the outer rows of the array of solder joints in the packages. The cracks occurring near the interface between the solder and the ceramic had been identified as the main cause of final package failure. …”

Indoor air quality in sleeping environments by Lim, Michael Ying Jie

“…Temperature and relative humidity were two of the major factors affecting thermal comfort levels, and results revealed that at times when the temperature and relative humidity were not within the recommended guidelines by NEA, occupants felt that thermal comfort level was acceptable. It was inferred that the level of thermal comfort carried a very subjective definition, and was ultimately up to personal preference. …”
