The main difficulty in obtaining adapters from stainless steel + zirconium metal combination lies in the formation of fragile intermetallic compounds at the weld border. By its properties, zirconium is very close to titanium, and therefore the manufacture of tubes from this combination, as well as pure titanium, is considerably difficult. Optimum explosion welding parameters have been developed, ensuring the highest adhesion strength compared to the existing production methods. At the weld border, a structure characteristic of compounds of dissimilar metals was revealed. The permissible heating temperatures for this combination are determined. The fundamental possibility of using the explosion energy as a factor stimulating the connection of dissimilar metals in order to obtain high-quality multilayer tubes, billets and products for various purposes is demonstrated, resulting in the introduction of environmentally friendly technology. Economic analysis of the manufacturing technology of bimetallic tubes by welding explosion was carried out. The cost-effectiveness of manufacturing technology of bimetallic stainless steel + zirconium metal compound nozzles, which is based on the use of high-pressure gradients and loading velocities to create production, was evaluated.

Developed a mathematical model, which makes it possible to optimize, from the point of view of defect formation, the parameters of stress concentration in a deformable elastic body of the materials being processed, destruction is considered as a method for creating defects at a submicroscopic level in various media. Getting expressions of conformal reflection of single circle on an arbitrary area, using a conformal reflection and transformation of Laplace, it is possible to design behavior of a tensely deformed state of solid at the arbitrary loading.

The paper provides an assessment of the safety processes of high-modulus energy sources systems during the initiation of flat and cylindrical high-modulus energy sources. The expressions, which establish the relationship between the parameters of flat and hollow cylindrical charges of explosives under the only condition of equality of the developed pressure pulse on the surface of the charge of explosives, provided all other things being equal, were obtained. In contrast to the earlier studies, which assert the existence of a direct relationship between the parameters during the initiation of flat and cylindrical surfaces, the current study demonstrates energy consumption during the initiation of cylindrical surfaces is higher than the initiation of flat surfaces, all other things being equal.

The possibility of obtaining multilayer cylindrical waveguides by explosion welding is investigated. The fact that the technological welding scheme has a significant impact on the shaping of workpieces and the value of edge effects was established. The studies demonstrated that the nature of wave formation during the manufacture of multilayer cylindrical waveguides from a homogeneous material by explosion welding using a central rod is identical to the wave formation when welding flat multilayer compositions on a rigid base.
