The main drawback of friction stir welding (FSW) dissimilar metals is the formation of
intermetallic compounds (IMCs), which are brittle and affect the strength of the joint. The …

The corrosion of mild steels by liquid aluminum is an intractable issue in aluminum industry.
This review aims to provide an overview of the corrosion behavior of mild steels in the static …

The formation of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) is an inevitable phenomenon during
friction stir welding (FSW) of dissimilar metals. Majority of approaches that have ever been …

In a comparative study of resistance spot welded (RSW) 1.2 mm AA6022 joined to 2.0 mm
high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel and 1.2 mm AA6022 joined to 2.0 mm low carbon steel …

We demonstrate multiscale mechanical testing using miniature and microscale tensile tests
