Fundamentals Of Sintering

This book provides cutting-edge knowledge on the theory and modelling of solid-state sintering. It includes new knowledge on 3D microstructural evolution obtained by computer simulations and nano/micro-tomography, as there has been significant progress in the basic sintering theory in the last 20 years. This book presents the fundamental principles related to sintering phenomena, with a focus on understanding the thermodynamic driving forces. Readers can gain insights by examining how a
