Abstract

Preliminary ideas are presented on developing coupled, continuum field formulations for composition and mechanics with applications to microelectronic materials. A thermodynamic basis is constructed, reflecting atomic-level transport mechanisms and the associated mechanics. Formal arguments lead to constitutive field relations, and specification of balance laws completes the coupled field description. Early numerical results are also presented.
