I've been trying to figure out what the Gibbs-Thomson effect is, but haven't been able to get a clear answer. Specifically, I'm interested in how it relates to the sintering process. If anyone could explain it to me or give me a good resource (I've been through several articles and of course Wiki). Every article seems to mention the Gibbs-Thomson effect, but none of them actually go into detail as to what it actually is.

Thanks in advance!
