Explosive welding of a thin magnesium plate onto some metal plates was performed by using underwater explosive welding technique developed by some of the authors. The experimental results show that the wavy interface which is typically found in the well-bonded clad was observed. The welding condition is discussed using the welding window based on the numerically simulated results using AUTODYN-2D code.

In this research, surface modification of copper with molybdenum was made using explosive welding technique. The underwater shock waves derived from the detonation of explosives was used to bond thin films of molybdenum on copper. Visual observation shows a sound joining of Mo/Cu. Microstructural characterization reveals the bonding interface with a clear wave formation between the participant metals. A clear wavy interface is formed when the weldable conditions lie in the weldability window. When the weldable conditions lie near the right limit or lower limit, a jet trapped region was formed.

Detonating code is a flexible code with an explosive core. It is used to transmit the ignition of explosives with high detonation velocity in the range of 5.5 to 7 km/s. However, it is difficult to use detonating code for the explosive welding of common metals since the horizontal point velocity usually exceeds the sound velocity. Hence, in the present work, a new method using underwater shock wave generated by the detonation of detonating code was tried. The details of the experimental parameters and the results are presented. From the results it is observed that the above technique is suitable to weld thin metal plates with relatively less explosives.

We present a methodology for automated forming of metal plates into freeformshapes using shot peening. The methodology is based on a simulation softwarethat computes the peening pattern and simulates the effect of its application.The pattern generation requires preliminary experimental characterizationof the treatment. The treatment is applied by a shot peening robot. The program for the robot is generated automatically according to the peening pattern. We validate the methodology with a series of tests. Namely, we form nine aluminum plates into doubly curved shapes and we also shape model airplane wing skins. The article describes the complete workflow and the experimental results.

This paper discusses welding technique of quenching and tempering steel after final treatment, and raises a composite welding technique and its corresponding welding condition by combining SMAW and TIG welding. Finally, technical experiments and performance tests have been done on typical parts of high strength steel, the results are satisfactory and indicate that it may be used in aircraft maintenance.

Detonating code, which is a flexible code with an explosive core, is normally used to transmit the ignition of explosives with high detonation velocity 6 km/s. Therefore it is difficult to use detonating code for the explosive welding of common metals toward the detonating direction since the welding velocity exceeds the sound velocity of metals. Hence, an explosive welding method using underwater shock wave generated by the detonation of detonating code was tried. In the present investigation, the details of the experimental setup and results are reported. And the welding conditions are discussed through numerical simulation. From these results it is observed that the above technique is suitable to weld thin metal plates with relatively less explosives.

Using an adjusted explosive welding technique, a Zr-2 alloy plate, a titanium plate and a carbon steel plate were cladded to form a three-layer composite panel which is difficult to manufacture by common methods. Microstructural evaluations reveal that a metallurgical bonding interface with wave morphology is realized, and the grains near the interface are smaller than grains in other areas. The microhardness of the sample near the interface is greatly higher than that of other areas. Furthermore, mechanical experimental evidence indicates the shearing strength of the interface in the moderate condition exceeds that of the interlayer plate.

The authors have developed a new method of explosive welding using underwater shock wave for the welding of thin plate on a substrate. Considering the size limitation of the welding area in using the technique, the possibility of overlapping thin plates to make large-sized welding area is investigated. In general, the results for the welding of Inconel 600 on 304 stainless steel show a macroscopically successful weld, but the microstructure shows some melting spots caused due to the trapping of metal jet during the welding process when the welding condition is changed. The welding process is discussed based on the experimental results in comparison with some numerically simulated results obtained by AUTODYN-2D code.
