Particle sintering problem

[HPL001]

Hello, dear researchers. I want to use moose to simulate the sintering process of two particles, mainly considering the phase field model, elasticity, etc. May I ask if there are any tutorials or existing cases that I can learn

Hello

There are a few examples of sintering models in the Phase field module
https://mooseframework.inl.gov/source/materials/ElectrochemicalSinteringMaterial.html
see https://mooseframework.inl.gov/source/materials/GrandPotentialSinteringMaterial.html
which has a list of examples at the bottom of the page

more info on the grand potential model here

Thank you for your help. In fact, what I want to understand is the simple sintering of two particles. I have seen some papers using MOOSE（for example，https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10853-017-1846-3）, but I do not know how they do it. Can you give me some advice?
