Kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations of sintering

Original · EN

We simulate the sintering of particle aggregates due to surface diffusion. As a method we use Kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations in which elasticity can explicitly be taken into account. Therefore it is possible to investigate the shape relaxation of aggregates also under the influence of an external pressure. Without elasticity we investigate the relaxation time and surface evolution of sintering aggregates and compare the simulations with the classical Koch-Friedlander theory. Deviations from the theoretical predictions will be discussed.
