Abstract
A method includes disposing a joining alloy between a first metal matrix composite substrate and a second metal matrix composite substrate to provide an assembly, and heating the assembly to a melting temperature of the joining alloy for a predetermined period of time. The melting temperature of the joining alloy is less than a melting temperature of the first metal matrix composite substrate and the second metal matrix composite substrate.
