W. Hort et Wc. Johnson, DIFFUSIONAL BOUNDARY-CONDITIONS DURING COARSENING OF ELASTICALLY INTERACTING PRECIPITATES, Metallurgical and materials transactions. A, Physical metallurgy andmaterials science, 25(12), 1994, pp. 2695-2703
The elastic fields associated with a dispersion of spherical particles
in an isotropic matrix are determined using the equivalent inclusion
approach of Moschovidis and Mura. The coherent particles possess a mis
fit strain and have elastic constants different from those of the matr
ix phase. A spatially nonuniform stress field can be applied to the sy
stem. The stress fields are used to calculate the equilibrium composit
ions at the precipitate-matrix interface for use as diffusional bounda
ry conditions in computer simulations of multiparticle coarsening in e
lastically stressed systems.
