I want to simulate volume shrinkage of metal powder layer during melting and solidification.
I am applying a moving gaussian heat source on a powder layer which melts and solidifies , I want to know the shrinkage for a predefined porosity .
Please tell me how to do this as I am not able to find any good way to account it.
Thanks in advance
