Abstract
A shaped charge incorporating an amorphous-based material component. The amorphous-based material component may be a liner for the shaped charge to enhance a jet for a perforating application. Other components of the shaped charge and/or perforating gun that accommodates the shaped charge may be of amorphous-based materials. Further, the liner and other components of the shaped charge may be manufactured by way of three dimensional printing. Indeed, a multi-material three dimensional print application may be utilized to form shaped charge components simultaneously along with an entire perforating gun system. Thus, tailored morphology and material gradient characteristics may be readily incorporated into the gun and shaped charge components with a considerable degree of precision.
