Expressions are derived for the interfacial stress that develops, during coarsening, at incoherent elemental particles whose single atomic component dissolves either substitutionally or interstitially in the matrix. It is assumed that vacancy flow provides the stress-relieving mechanism. It is concluded that, in general significant levels of stress can be generated only when the solute is interstitially dissolved.
