Sintering is an important processing step in both ceramics and metalsprocessing. The microstructure resulting from this process determines manymaterials properties of interest. Hence the accurate prediction of themicrostructure, depending on processing and materials parameters, is of greatimportance. The phase-field method offers a way of predicting thismicrostructural evolution on a mesoscopic scale. The present paper employs thismethod to investigate concurrent densification and grain growth and theinfluence of stress on densification. Furthermore, the method is applied tosimulate the entire freeze-casting process chain for the first time ever bysimulating the freezing and sintering processes separately and passing thefrozen microstructure to the present sintering model.
