Abstract

The thermodynamic meaning of the sintering stress is considered for some simple 2-dimensional porous bodies. The sintering stress acts as an effective mean grainboundary stress and can thus be meaningfully combined with applied stresses. The sintering stress can, in general, not be described in rigorous thermodynamic terms, especially for heterogeneous compacts. Simplifications do allow, however, to assess the effects of some microstructural heterogeneities, including the presence of large pores or of dispersed second phases, on the sintering stress.
