In metal matrix composites (MMCs) internal stresses to be induced by changes in temperature as a result of unequal coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) of matrix and reinforcement can have various effects on macromechanical behavior of MMCs. In this study neutron diffraction has been used to determine stresses in a quenched SiC/Al particulate composite.
