GRADED TRANSITIONS FOR JOINING DISSIMILAR METALS AND METHODS OF FABRICATION THEREFOR

摘要

A transition joint for joining dissimilar metals with the chemical composition of the joint varied in a controlled manner from end to end. The transition joint has a first end of having a chemical composition similar to that of one of the metals to be joined and a second end having a chemical composition similar to that of the other metal with a gradual composition variation between the first and second ends.
