SPS or FAST has demonstrated its benefits as a rapid processing avenue, with application to the largest variety of materials - ceramics, metals, polymers, semiconductors - and which results in enhanced final properties. This work covers the physical phenomena, multi-scale analytical and numerical models, experimental studies, and application of FAST processing. Specifically, a coupled thermal-electric-densification framework for the design and optimization of FAST type processing has been proposed and implemented into a finite element package. A discrete finite element method is also developed to determine the effective thermal conductivity in a particulate system with realistic microstructure. Finally, FAST simulation of a hip joint replacement has been conducted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jing Zhang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 363923555X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639235555\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.37d","brand":"Jing Zhang","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47424585236735,"sku":"9783639235555","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_37bbd3c6-1190-4409-8cda-d63f1fdfe920.jpg?v=1761531207","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modeling-of-thermoelectric-phenomena-in-jing-zhang-9783639235555","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
