Electronic Packaging
- Sandwiched PMCs
- Wide range of architectures are possible, e.g. ball grid arrays, flip chip assemblies etc.
- Cracking problems may occur due to CTE mismatch between constituents
- Engineering issues associated with increasing size and evolving architectures
Biomedical Applications
- Main issues are biocompatibility and durability
- Aggressive dental applications - crowns, implants
- Prosthetic devices for humans
- artificial limbs
- artificial bone
- heart valves
Sports Applications
- Increasing applications in recent years
- Most applications take advantage of E/M ratio
- Emerging applications in golf clubs, tennis rackets, pole vaults
- Main problem is cost vs. performance
