I have been trying to find an answer for this for quite some time and found this forum which could help me.
Does an initial stress (elastic strain induced in a metallic component) change its thermal expansion coefficient? if yes then what is the relationship?
In simpler terms, does 2 identical parts one under load (elastically strained) and other free state would expand through the same length when the surrounding temprature is increased?
