Electron beam welding: Review of literature

The literature on electron beam welding has been reviewed with regard to (1) weldability and material properties; and (2) production applications. Each section has been sub-divided to allow easy reference to publications on specific materials or particular industries. This report should be read in conjunction with CIT Memo 69, "Bibliography on Electron Beam Welding". Starting in 1946 as the College of Aeronautics, the Cranfield Institute of Technology was granted university status in 1969. In 1993 it changed its name to Cranfield University.
