An extensive numerical campaign of particle mechanics calculations that\npredict microstructure formation and evolution during die compaction, up to\nrelative densities close to one, of monodisperse plastic spheres that exhibit\npower-law plastic hardening behavior is presented. The study is focused on\nelucidating the relationship between particle plastic properties, loading\nconditions, and statistical features of the resulting microstructure. This\ncommunication provides fundamental insight into the achievable space of\nmicrostructures through die compaction, for given plastic stiffness and\nhardening exponent at the particle scale.\n
