ABSTRACT:
A joint having bond line grains that nucleate in the joint region and grow into the adjoined solid substrates. The resulting bond line grains have a size that is greater than a thickness of a molten region. The surfaces of the substrates are cold worked to a desired degree of residual stress prior to the bonding process so that the recrystallization of the substrate surface necessary for the grains to grow into the substrates results in a reduction in the local free energy.
