Abstract
The finite element method is employed to determine the morphological evolution of grain coarsening in capillary liquid bridge. Multi grain model represented by two dimensional contours defined as discrete set of points was used. Numerical method for simulation of grain coarsening was based on the interfacial concentrations as given by the Gibbs-Thomson equation and on modeling of intergrain difusional interactions. It is shown that the strong intergrain diffusional interactions can induce large shape distortion of the contours and significant migration of the center of mass of the contours. Using different arrangement of contours joined by capillary liquid bridge it was shown that this migration very much depends on the spatial distribution of contours.
