A method for characterizing thermomechanical properties of an organic substrate is provided. The method includes the steps of: receiving an image of the organic substrate, the image including a geometric description of the plurality of circuit layers of the substrate; selecting a given one of the plurality of circuit layers for processing; converting the image to a two-dimensional finite element model (FEM) image of the given one of the circuit layers; determining at least one of a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), modulus and Poisson's ratio of the FEM image of the given one of the circuit layers; repeating the steps of selecting a given one of the plurality of circuit layers, converting the image to a two-dimensional FEM image, and determining at least one of a CTE, modulus and Poisson's ratio of the FEM image for all of the plurality of circuit layers corresponding to at least a portion of the organic substrate; and constructing a three-dimensional representation of at least a portion of the organic substrate including the plurality of circuit layers as a function of at least one of the CTE, modulus and Poisson's ratio of each of the plurality of circuit layers.
