1 Introduction
Creating new porous powder materials (PPM) with guaranteed properties has
become possible with the help of traditional powder metallurgy technology, but
it is necessary to forecast and control the parameters of their structure in the
manufacturing process, which include: granulomere composition of the charge,
the shape of particles, the density of the molded workpiece, the quality of the
contacts, shaping, porosity, density, and volume distribution. However, the methods
of powder metallurgy do not always ensure the homogeneity of properties within the
materials and do not present an opportunity to obtain the structural characteristics
of materials on a qualitative level. There is a need to increase the efficiency of
traditional technologies and also an introduce non-waste production of widespread
products, save energy, reduce labor costs, and control the parameters of the
structure of powder materials in the process of their manufacture, possibly through
forecasting using modern simulation tools [1–3].
The prediction of laws of the formation of structures and properties of materials
depends firstly on the geometric factors of the powder particles. In addition, the
analysis of modern technological processes of powder metallurgy shows that the
presence of correlation links between the constituents, structure, and properties is
provided by all operations of the technological process, where the initial stage is the
filling of molds with a powder, which determines not only the size, shape, density,
productivity, safety, and culture of work, but also affects a number of important
properties of the finished product. Therefore, modeling experiments of forecasting

the dependence of material properties on the technological parameters of obtaining
products using analytical, numerical, and numerical–analytical methods by three-
dimensional modeling hold great importance in this arena.
2 Literature Review
The analysis of structurally heterogeneous materials was carried out by scientific
groups under the guidance of R.M. Kadushnikov, I.G. Kamenin, Yu. N. Kryuchkov,
V.D. Rud, M.B. Shtern, and V.D. Rud. The peculiarity of these works is the
modeling of the structural characteristics of materials made up of particles in regular
and irregular forms. The simulation results were checked on field experiments with
manufactured carbido states, which proved to be highly effective in modeling. The
obtained results qualitatively reproduce the process of filling the press form [4–7].
In the works of K.K. Kuzhidlovskiy, M.M. Lobur, O.M. Matviykova, and T.V.
Semenov, the authors considered information methods for calculating the physical
and chemical characteristics of powder materials [8–10]. The peculiarity of these
works is that only the chemical composition or aggregate state of the initial material
is analyzed, and the restoration of oxides, electrolysis of materials, and thermal
dissociation of compounds was observed.
In foreign literary sources, much of the work on creating geometry is heavily
centered on fiber modeling and the very boundary of geometry in composite
materials [11,12].
Modeling methods for the uncertainty of geometry influence the strength of
components at the initial filling stage [13–15], but modeling of the random
placement of powder at the filling stage in the hopper, taking into account the
physical parameters of components, is completely unexplored.
There is a great need for the development of a methodology for modeling the
calculation of a real fill in PPM form, which represents a more realistic level of
heterogeneity and is the starting point for identifying the physical basis of powder
behavior at the filling stage for most of the cases that are currently determined
as empirical and characterized by real experiments. Ideally, the theoretical results
obtained in this way change the engineering view of the properties of future PPM.
Therefore, the aim of our study is to develop a methodology for a calculation
model of random pores in PPM at the stage of placing the material into the hopper,
taking into account the physical fundamental components for a two-dimensional
case.
3 New Method for the Calculation of Physical Parameters
For filtering the PPM, it is necessary to use powders with large particle sizes, while,
at the same time, it is necessary to use powders of small particle sizes to achieve
a high fineness of purification. These contradictions predetermine the need to find

new technological techniques and methods that would allow the creation of PPM
with such structures, which provide the most optimal combination of performance
characteristics.
In addition, it should be noted that the practice of using new materials for
the foundations of metal powders shows that implementation in full volume of
their strength and performance characteristics requires a significant increase in the
prediction accuracy of the physical and mechanical properties of materials and the
development of new methods of modeling that include a comprehensive analysis of
the processes of formation materials.
By analyzing the majority of domestic and foreign models of consolidation
powders, the authors proposed a new method for the calculation of physical
parameters, which formed the basis for the study of real packages (two-dimensional
case).
Let area G∈R3be filled with small metal balls (Fig. 1).
It is necessary to establish the integral characteristics of the material to be
received, such as the dielectric penetration. To solve this problem, we use the
following approach [16]. Consider that, as a result of filling the area G, the particles
appear as stationary, isotropic, random fields {ξij(u), u∈R3}, which describe the
dielectric permittivity of the population.
If the electric potential of the region is applied as φ, then the potential Uinside
the area is the solution to the Dirichlet problem:
⎧
⎪
⎨
⎪
⎩
3
i,j=1
ξi,j ∂2
∂xi∂xjU=0
U∂G =ϕ
,(1)
Since the coefficients ξij have a complex nature, then a direct solution to the
problem is impossible. Therefore, using the averaging method is proposed. Assume
that ∀i,j∈Zξij is ergodic and area Gis large enough to manifest this property. That
is expected, but instead of Eq. (1), note that:

,(2)
with some “averaged” value of ξij.
As part of this approach, the following simple cases were considered:
1. One-dimensional space, where G∈R. Instead of a random field ξ(u), u∈R
considers a periodic function p: R →R.
2. Multidimensional space, with the same periodic function p: Rd→R,ÇÈ d>2.
3.1 One-Dimensional Case
Let G=[−1; 1]. In this case, the system in Eq. (1) can be rewritten as follows:
x
ε(u) =pε(u)xε(u)
xε(−1)=xε(1)=1,(3)
where pε(x) =px
εand p:R→R, which is a periodic function with a period of 1.
Decisions of this system are made through a probabilistic representation:
x(u) =Muexp −τ
0
pε(ω(s))ds,
where {w(s), s∈[0, +∞]}, known as the Wiener process, and τ=inf{s:wu(s)∈
{−1; 1}}, which is the moment of exit of the Wiener process from area G.
Since the measure of attending the Wiener process specified on Ris absolutely
continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure, then the following equality holds:
τ
0
pε(ω(s))ds =−1
−1
pε(u)lτ(u)d,
where lτ(u) =τ
0δu(ω(s))ds, which is the local time of the Wiener process at point
u.
If it is known that lτ(u) is a continuous function, then for further transformations,
we use the following theorem.

Fig. 3 Sample calibration process and real dimensional input with the Smart-eye®application
Analysis of the porosity distributions of PPM was carried out using the Smart-
eye®application (Fig. 3). The software allows determining the necessary character-
istics needed for a qualitative assessment of the structure of any material, including
porous ones [18]. The algorithm of work is as follows: let bi,jbe the outgoing image,
where its value is equal to the brightness at point i,j∈D, where i=1, 2, ...nand
j=1, 2, 3, ...m. Image bi,jis under real conditions and, also, a set of images of
individual objects will be equal to:
bi,j =H1(i, j )+H2(i, j)+···+ Hs,k (i, j )(7)
where Hsis the number of real objects and Hk(i,j) is the image of the kth object,
k=1, 2, 3, ...s.
The task of a recognizable image in this case will consist of finding all
objects Hs(i,j) and Hk(i,j), which are determined from the criteria of the homo-
geneity area:
max
P∈R|f(P)−m|×T(8)
where µis the initial value, Pis the value in area R, mis the average number of
pixels in area P, and f(P) is the brightness distribution function.
Obtaining the porosity distribution (Figs. 4and 5) gives a clear idea of the particle
size distribution, provided that the radii (in fractions) are the same and characterize
the differential distribution of the particles in the area of the cylindrical bunker [19].

5 Conclusions
The practice of producing new porous materials on the fundamental aspects of
metal powders shows that the implementation in full volume of their strength
and exploitation characteristics requires a significant increase in the prediction
accuracy of physical and mechanical properties of materials and the development
of new methods of modeling, which includes complex analysis of the processes of
formation materials.
Comparison of data obtained by computer simulation methods with the results of
experimental studies in general shows the adequacy of representations, laid down on
the basis of the algorithm and the means of its implementation. At the same time,
certain simplifications for the purpose of idealization result from the fact that the
experimental curves are located below the corresponding data obtained by computer
simulation methods. That is, the real tendency to compaction being higher than
expected. It is possible to assume that, during the packing, there are processes of
additional crushing, due to which there are additional conditions for the mutual
movement of particles. As a result, the process of filling the voids becomes more
significant.
