Simulation and analysis of coupled surface and grain boundary motion
At the microscopic level, many materials are made of smaller and randomly oriented grains. These grains are separated by grain boundaries which tend to decrease the electrical and thermal conductivity of the material. The motion of grain boundaries is an important phenomenon controlling the grain gr...
