Abstract:
A method for making a joint structure including embedding a portion of at least two layers of a third component into a first component and interleaving at least one layer of a second component with an unembedded portion of the at least two layers of the third component, wherein the third component inhibits galvanic corrosion between the first and second components, the first component has a first CTE, the second component has a second CTE that is different from the first CTE, the third component has a third CTE that is between the first CTA and the second CTE, and the third component comprises a mesh component.
