Hi. I'm now starting my PhD on a project on sintering of hard metal.
I'm doing a literature study, but I have failed to find any articles that uses FE analysis on the micro/mesoscale. All of them seems to handle this only with a homogenized model on the macroscale.
If I get to be picky, I would prefer something with hardmetal, but at this point, anything would be great.
I would also be very happy to find any suitable reading on FE-analysis on solid-liquid-pore mixtures.
A Note on Stereology
The best place to start is Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereology.
Most active research in stereology is done in medical and biological community.
