On the basis of the Kolmogorov–Johnson–Mehl–Avrami (KJMA) method for space tessellation the kinetics of Voronoi cell filling, by central grain growth, has been studied as a function of the cell size.

Abstract
On the basis of the Kolmogorov–Johnson–Mehl–Avrami (KJMA) method for space tessellation the kinetics of Voronoi cell filling, by central grain growth, has been studied as a function of the cell size. This is done by solving an integral equation for which a class of solutions is obtained in closed form, where the cell-size probability density is the Gamma distribution function. The computation gives the time evolution of the mean grain size, as a function of cell volume, which is further employed for describing the grain-size probability density function. The present approach is applied to determine, analytically, the exact grain-size distribution function in 1D and the size distributions in 2D and 3D through approximation.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
