Zusammenfassung:Techniques for injecting adhesive materials are presented herein. An apparatus in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure comprises an additively manufactured hollow node having a surface opening, and adhesive material extending from the surface opening into an internal volume of the additively manufactured hollow node. The adhesive material comprises a foaming adhesive. Another method may include preparing at least one undercut region on a surface to accept a cold spray deposition, performing a first cold spray process to deposit material into the at least one undercut region for reducing corrosion on a metallic interface formed at the surface; and performing a second cold spray process to build the metallic interface for joining an aluminum component.
