Explosive Welded Tankage.

Abstract

The report covers the design, development, fabrication, test and evaluation of joints applicable to large rocket propellant containers. The joints were fabricated by explosive welding techniques and were made from 18% Nickel Maraging Steel Grade 250. The objective of this program was to show feasibility in bonding this material into joints having zero leak potential and possessing parent material strength. (Modified author abstract)
