Particle methods in powder technology
Abstract
The feasibility of particle based simulation methods is shown for powder technological applications like compaction, sintering and filling of a dispersed powder. In contrast to continuum methods this approach automatically takes into account the rearrangements of the grains and predicts structural composition. This allows for a comparison with analytical results in the case of powder compaction and sintering giving new insights into the dynamics of granular materials.
