Thermal Mismatch Stress of a Spherical Inclusion in a Cubic Crystal

by Chiang, Chun-Ron

The thermal stress induced in a spherical inclusion by the difference of the thermal expansion coefficiences of the inclusion and its embedding matrix is considered. Both the inclusion and the matrix are assumed to be of cubic symmetry. Eshelby’s equivalent inclusion method is used to solve the problem. A smple expression for the determination of thermal mismatch stress is thus derived. Some numerical examples are provided.
