Abstract
In the field of particle sintering involving viscous bulk flow, this paper shows, using Monte Carlo modelling, that energy fluctuations influence particles sintering kinetics. These fluctuations are considered to be responsible for the non-linear mass transport behaviour during the sintering of two cylinders. In the case where these fluctuations are considered negligible, the Newtonian viscous flow regime is shown to be the main mechanism.
