Abstract

In some examples, a technique including positioning supports such that the supports are between a first metallic substrate and a second metallic substrate, wherein an undulating member is located between the first metallic substrate and the second metallic substrate, the undulating member defining a plurality of first peaks adjacent to a first surface of the first metallic substrate and a plurality of second peaks adjacent to a second surface of the second metallic substrate, wherein a first support of the supports is positioned such that the first support extends between a first peak of the plurality of first peaks and the second surface of the second metallic substrate; welding the first peak to the first surface of the first metallic substrate in an area of the first support; and removing the first support by at least one of a thermal removal process or a chemical removal process.
