Abstract

See full text

Joining process, joined article, and process of fabricating a joined article are disclosed. The joining process includes providing a consumable electrode comprising a first material and a second material, melting the consumable electrode by a current-induced melting or remelting, and re-solidifying the first material and the second material to form a dissimilar ingot having a first region being a re-solidification of the first material and a second region being a re-solidification of the second material. The joined article includes the first region and the second region; the dissimilar ingot at least partially defines the joined article. The process of fabricating includes providing the dissimilar ingot, positioning the dissimilar ingot within a die, and applying force from the die to compress the dissimilar ingot, thereby forming the joined article.
