This work deals with microstructural characterisation modelling and simulation of SOFC
electrodes with the goal of optimizing the electrode microstructures. Methods for a detailed
electrode analysis based on focused ion beam (FIB) tomography are presented. A 3D FEM model
able to perform simulations of LSCF cathodes based on 3D tomography data is shown. A model
generating realistic yet synthetic microstructures is presented that enables the optimization
of microstructural characteristics.
