**3.2 Different materials combination joined by explosive welding**

Explosive welding process is capable of joining similar and dissimilar material combinations irrespective of the difference in physical and chemical properties.


#### **Table 2.**

*Material combinations joined using explosive welding process.*

### *Material Flow Analysis*

The various material combinations joined using explosive welding process i.e. similar and dissimiliar combinations are given in **Table 2.** In this process, different authors have also used the concept of the interlayer to minimize the kinetic energy loss as well as the formation of meting zone at the weld interface.
