A slight mismatch between the lattice parameters of two intergrown “coherent” phases can cause internal stresses within a two phase alloy which can modify the shapes of the dispersed phase particles. Recent studies by both metallurgists and geologists have been aimed at understanding this and other stress related phenomena.
