An additive manufactured workpiece includes one or more cavities having an inner surface. A dielectric interface is formed in the cavity, and conforms to the inner surface. The additive manufactured workpiece further includes an in-situ electrode in the cavities. The dielectric interface is interposed between the in-situ electrode and the inner surface of the workpiece.

A method for forming a fragmentation explosive munition includes providing a casing, and forming holes in the casing using electrical discharge machining (EDM), thereby forming a modified casing.

A gas path component for a gas turbine engine includes a film cooling hole disposed in the gas path component. The film cooling hole includes a metering section, a diffuser, and a tapered surface extending between the metering section and the diffuser. The tapered surface is oriented between twenty degrees and seventy degrees with respect to a centerline axis of the metering section. The tapered surface is oriented at an obtuse angle with respect to an immediately adjacent surface of the diffuser, the obtuse angle is open towards the centerline axis. The tapered surface is configured to mitigate flow separation in the diffuser.
