Sintering of ice is driven by the thermodynamic requirement to decrease surface energy. The
structural morphology of ice in nature has many forms—from snowflakes to glaciers. These …

An integrated approach, combining the continuum theory of sintering with a kinetic Monte‐
Carlo (KMC) model‐based mesostructure evolution simulation is reviewed. The effective …

Sinteringof Ceramics provides the only comprehensive treatment ofthe theories and
principles of sintering and their application to the production of advanced ceramics. It …

As we learn more about the physics, chemistry and engineering of materials at the
nanoscale, we find that the development of a complete understanding is not (in general) …

Sintering and nanostability (defined as the stability against sintering) are critical phenomena
present in the processing and application of nanoparticles. With important implications in …

This paper discusses in detail the development of a numerical model capable of simulating
microstructural evolution and macroscopic deformation during sintering of complex powder …

The free sintering of metallic powders is investigated by the discrete element method which
allows the particulate nature of the material to be taken explicitly into account. A simple …

Metallic conductive nanoink with the sensitivity of temperature, oxygen, and electrochemical
migration is a great challenge for printed electronics. Here, the size-controllable Cu@ Ag …

Sintering, as a thermal process at elevated temperature below the melting point, is widely
used to bond contacting particles into engineering products such as ceramics, metals …

Sintering is a high temperature process used for ceramic or metallic powder consolidation
that consists of concurrent densification and grain growth. This work presents a coupled …
