Material Joining via Micro-Jet Locking

Joining methods and corresponding structures are disclosed. In some instances, a method for joining two or more components may include generating a shockwave in a first component to form a jet of a material of the first component directed towards a second component. The jet may penetrate the second component to connect the first component with the second component. Articles of pre-joined and joined components are also described.
