A method for preparing an alternating arrangement silver-copper lateral composite ingot, including: using a concave roller set; manufacturing a copper frame having a fixed width according to a negative tolerance of a width of the grooves of the concave roller, and corresponding copper bars and silver bars, and performing a surface into the copper frame to form a composite blank, i.e., a composite ingot. A method for preparing an alternating arrangement silver-copper lateral composite strip is further provided, and the silver-copper lateral composite ingot prepared by the method for preparing the alternating arrangement silver-copper lateral composite ingot is used to prepare the silver-copper lateral composite strip.

A metal porous body having a connection portion where end portions in a longitudinal direction X of at least two long sheet-shaped metal porous materials are connected in a manner overlapping with each other, each of the metal porous materials having a frame with a three-dimensional network structure, the metal porous body having a recess with a thickness thinner than a thickness of each of the metal porous materials, in the connection portion, the frames of the at least two metal porous materials being entangled with each other, in the recess.

A means for attaching a metallic component to a non-metallic component using a compliant material having thermal properties intermediate those of the metallic component to a non-metallic component is provided. The method can accommodate CTE mismatches and wear-type problems common to many assemblies of dissimilar materials. In particular, the method provides a sufficient wear surface to accommodate relative motion and provide a durable wear surface that does not excessively wear/gall/mico-weld itself together and provides the necessary damping and motion for proper operation in aeronautical applications.

A process and apparatus for forming a structure comprising: a) forming a pack from a skin sheet and a core sheet, wherein venting grooves are formed in a surface of a sheet that is adjacent to the other sheet; b) placing the pack in a mould and heating the pack; c) injecting a first gas between the core and skin sheets to urge the skin sheet against the mould; d) injecting a second gas on the side of the core sheet remote from the skin sheet to urge the core sheet against the skin sheet; e) maintaining gas pressure of the second gas thereby diffusion bonding the sheets; and f) withdrawing some or all of the first gas from the cavity.

An electric-resistance-welded stainless clad steel pipe or tube that is excellent in both the fracture property of the weld and the corrosion resistance of the pipe or tube inner surface as electric resistance welded without additional welding treatment such as weld overlaying after electric resistance welding is provided. An electric-resistance-welded stainless clad steel pipe or tube comprises: an outer layer of carbon steel or low-alloy steel; and an inner layer of austenitic stainless steel having a predetermined chemical composition, wherein a flatness value h/D in a 90 flattening test in accordance with JIS G 3445 is less than 0.3, and a pipe or tube inner surface has no crack in a sulfuric acid-copper sulfate corrosion test in accordance with ASTM A262-10, Practice E, where h is a flattening crack height (mm), and D is a pipe or tube outer diameter (mm).
