Explosive Welding, Forming and Compaction

The last two decades have seen a steady and impressive development, and eventual industrial acceptance, of the high energy-rate manufact­ turing techniques based on the utilisation of energy available in an explo­ sive charge. Not only has it become economically viable to fabricate complex shapes an...
