fusing
Bonding through heat
Fusing is the process of joining things together by melting or blending them into one.
Metals fuse under intense heat.
Ideas or styles fuse when they merge: The album fuses jazz with electronic beats.
A fuse blows when electrical current melts its element, breaking the circuit—the act of fusing that protects against overload.
