Numerical Simulation of the Temperature and Stress Field Evolution Applied to the Field Assisted Sintering Technique
Figure 4
(a) Temperature-time profiles at points 1–5 contrasting the temperature dependence on spatial variation. (b) The temperature within the sample, corresponding to the line connecting points 1 and 2, as a function of radial distance. The plot clearly shows the nonhomogeneous nature of the Al2O3 temperature distribution.
