Abstract

Grain growth (GG) processes in the presence of second-phase and stationary particles have been widely studied but the results found are inconsistent. We present new GG simulations in two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) polycrystalline samples with second phase stationary particles, using the Monte Carlo technique. Simulations using values of particle concentration greater than 15% and particle radii different from 1 or 3 are performed, thus covering a range of particle radii and concentrations not previously studied. It is shown that only the results for 3D samples follow Zener's law.
