Abstract
Explosive welding, which has emerged as a promising field of research in the recent past, is a solid-state welding process that uses controlled explosive detonation to join two pieces of metal. A flyer plate collides with the base plate at high velocity, leading to significant local plastic deformation at the interface of the metals, resulting in a metallurgical bond between the metals. A high-velocity jet is formed in the process that eliminates the contaminants on the metal surfaces. Explosive welding can join materials that are similar or different. Some of the recent and important research work pertaining to explosive welding of dissimilar metals is briefly reviewed in this paper. Various aspects of the explosive welding process have been touched upon. A study of several parameters involved in the welding process is undertaken.

Keywords
