Modelling of Grain Growth Kinetics in Porous Ceramic Materials under Normal and Irradiation Conditions

Effect of porosity on grain growth is both the most frequent and technologically important situation encountered in ceramic materials. Generally this effect occurs during sintering, however, for nuclear fuels it also becomes very important under reactor irradiation conditions. In these cases pores a...
