Forecast of geometric characteristics of low-temperature ceramics with multilevel hierarchical pore structure

On the base of micromechanics of heterogeneous media the approach of computer simulation of the process of low-temperature ceramic sintering being synthesized by additive technologies of layer-by-layer build-up of the original polydisperse mixture and subsequent sintering is offered. The possibility of refractory component skeleton formation at different structural levels, being determined by particle fraction size is taken into account. Formation of the skeleton of refractory components of interacting particles causes the formation of the pore structure, and non-uniform distribution of pores in the layer thickness determines the initial anisotropy of shrinkage of sintered ceramics.
