Semi-solid metal (SSM) processing has been an attractive method for manufacturing near-
net-shape components with high integrity due to its distinct advantages over conventional …

The semisolid metal joining (SSMJ) process or thixojoining process has recently been
developed based on the principles of SSM processing, which is a technology that involves …

A method to reach the globular weld structure of A356 aluminum alloy using stirring the
localized semisolid zone during butt-joining is developed. Since the heat conductivity of this …

Semisolid stir joining of AZ91 alloy was investigated by using mechanical stirring and Mg–
25wt% Zn interlayer. A 2mm-thick interlayer was located between two 7.5 mm-thick AZ91 …

A high quality joint of zinc based pressure die cast alloys can be hardly achieved by
conventional fusion welding. In this study, a novel technique to achieve the globular weld …

In this study for the first time, the effects of decrease in heat inflow to the weld metal in friction
stir process by utilising semisolid processing and decreasing the pin rotational speed as …

Tool steels are widely used in various industries, such as automotive, shipbuilding,
manufacturing, and marine, for rolling mills, blanking metals, and punching dies, given their …

This paper explores the possibilities of joining SiCp/A356 composites using semisolid
Zn27Al filler metal with aid of mechanical stirring. Moreover, the effect of stirring rate on the …

Stirring assisted brazing of SiCp/A356 composites in air was investigated. A stirring was
applied on one of the samples to be bonded at 455° C during brazing. The filler metal was …

A technique to achieve the globular weld structure using stirring the localized semisolid
zone during butt-joining of zinc AG40A (Zamak-3) die cast alloy is reported. Since the …
