Which outcome predominates when brazing dissimilar metals with significantly different thermal expansion coefficients?

💡 Explanation

When heated, differential expansion induces stress, causing eventual cracking because stress concentrates at the interface exceeding the joint's tensile strength. Therefore joint failure happens, rather than oxidation, phases or ductility which require altering material properties besides expansion mismatch during heating.
