I found similar descriptions at The Welding Institute where the technique was invented. However, I don't see any
applications other than for butt joints. I can see this being used for joining aircraft skins, but I don't see how it
can replace rivets for joining the skin to internal support structures such as ribs and fuselage formers. Anyone know
if this is possible with this technique?
