I have seen quite a wide range of Elastic Modulus values for polyimide pwb boards. Does anyone know of a reliable source that I can utilize to do a vibration analysis on a printed circuit board.

Thanks

PROEDJ: What is that you want to do? By vibration analysis do you mean a test like MIL-STD 810 or a resonance search or something else?

I was hoping to do a Pro-Mechanica or Ansys FEA analysis to determine the mode shapes and resonant frequencies of a board. I will also back this up with a hand calculation of the natural frequency. Both of these task require the Elastic Modulus, poisson's ratio, and density. I would actually prefer to have the properties of fully constructed printed circuit board.

Why not measure it? If the variances are that high, only a measurement will nail it down.
