Abstract
The problem of the initiation of additional internal thermal stresses in a composite material with a granular filler under the influence of temperature has been posed. Using the spherical inclusion model used in the theory of composites, resolving equations are formulated, and their analytical solutions are constructed in a closed form. It is shown that the internal thermal stresses arising in the system are of a localized nature, proportional to the value of the elastic module of the materials of each phase and the difference between their coefficients of linear thermal expansion, and decrease in inverse proportion to the cube of the radial coordinate. With the help of specific applied examples, it has been established that even with a sufficiently small change in temperature, these stresses can reach limit values that contribute to the initiation of hidden internal localized defects and cracks in the system
