The Effects of Target Thicknesses and Backing Materials on a Ti-Cu Collision Weld Interface Using Laser Impact Welding

This study demonstrates that the thickness of the target and its backing condition have a powerful effect on the development of a wave structure in impact welds. Conventional theories and experiments related to impact welds show that the impact angle and speed of the flyer have a controlling influen...
