| Abstract Scope |
Underlying many processing operations (such as electric field-assisted sintering), their resulting modern devices (like solid-state battery technology), and the reliability of their performance is the development of percolating paths for charge, mass, and stress distribution that stem from the compounding effect of particle-particle contacts and the surrounding local environment. These percolating ion flow paths are crucial to specify performance and in some cases to limit uncertainty in macroscopic responses, as they are influenced by the dependent porosity and particle clustering in any engineered microstructures. In this paper, a combination of computer-generated-based microstructures, OOF-based finite element analysis, and data analytics is leveraged to develop insights on the spatially resolved percolation science of ionic ceramics for single- and two-phase granular systems and its impact on the macroscopically observed properties. |
