The discrete element method (DEM), based on a soft-sphere approach, is commonly used to simulate powder compaction. With these simulations a new macroscopic constitutive relation can be formulated. It is able to de-scribe accurately the constitutive material of powders during the cold compaction pro

A discrete and continuum modelling approach to powder compaction is presented and discussed. The work demonstrates the ability of the discrete method to capture the compression of a ductile matrix and a matrix comprising a ductile and brittle assembly. The discrete element analysis is compared with
The generally accepted meaning of the term "sintering," as applied in the metallurgical sense, is the formation of bonds between metal particles, accompanied by a densification of the metal-void system under consideration. This phase of metallurgy is of considerable practical and fundamental intere
