A vertical grain boundary intercepting a horizontal free surface forms a groove to reduce the combined surface energy of the system. The groove grows with time and is commonly used for measuring surface diffusion coefficients. This work studies grooving by capillarity-driven surface diffusion with s

The diffusivity of indium as an impurity along grain boundaries in nickel bicrystals of known orientation has been measured using secondary ion mass spectrometry ISIMS). The values obtained are very large and comparable in magmtude to those observed by Hillert and Purdy. and by Smidoda. Gottschalk a
Following a model for the sintering of a row of grains by Sun et al. (1996), a simplified model is developed for cavity growth along a grainboundary by surface and grain-boundary diffusion. The cavity surface is approximated by two arcs of equal radius truncated by the grain-boundary. The arcs evolv
