The continuum mechanics analysis of creep behavior of metal matrix composites is presented in this paper. The analysis includes elasticity, power law creep and diffusional matter transport and sliding along the reinforcement/matrix interfaces. The solution of the problem requires development of original mathematical and numerical methods. The present results indicate a significant influence of reinforcement/matrix interface properties on macroscopic behavior of the composite as well as on stress distribution in the composite under creep conditions.
