Non-discrete energetic Monte Carlo methodology applied to two-dimensional constrained or free sintering of an infinite row of particles, showed the relevance of such a model for an accurate evaluation of the interface morphologies. Calculated interface morphologies for equilibrium and quasi-equilibrium states match perfectly those obtained using direct analytical methods.
