Abstract: As a promising research area, sintering demands experimentation to match the planned objectives and prediction to avoid unnecessary experiments. Both are required to background the decision-making process in this area. Therefore, in this paper, the impact of geometric sintering parameters on the densification of flat cylinders is examined by simulating measurements of a caliper and performing densification calculations using SINT software. The results point out that relatively small variations in geometric parameters imply significantly large variations in densification. In view of this, densification proved to be highly dependent on the geometric parameters of sintering, demanding more detailed research about the subject.
