The unique combination of very large strains, high temperatures and high strain rates
inherent to friction stir welding (FSW) and friction stir processing (FSP) and their dependency …

Friction stir welding and processing enabled the creation of stronger joints, novel ultrafine-
grained metals, new metal matrix composites, and multifunctional surfaces at user-defined …

Friction stir welding (FSW), a highly efficient solid-state joining technique, has been termed
as “green” technology due to its energy efficiency and environment friendliness. It is an …

Friction stir welding (FSW) has enjoyed great success in joining aluminum alloys. As
lightweight structures are designed in higher numbers, it is only natural that FSW is being …

The objective of this study was to identify the effect of base metal (BM) locations on the
corrosion behavior of friction stir welded dissimilar 2024-T351 to 7075-T651 aluminum …

Abstract Pure copper and Cu-Zn plates were friction stir welded under the same condition to
evaluate the effect of stacking fault energy on the microstructural evolution and mechanical …

Different tool geometries were used to investigate the joining of aluminum alloys (AA2198 to
AA2024) by friction stir welding (FSW). Three shoulder profiles (flat, raised spiral, and raised …

The 3rd generation of aluminum–lithium (Al–Li) alloys provides a desirable combination of
high mechanical properties and low density compared to their traditional counterparts …

This study employed the bobbin tool friction stir welding (BT-FSW) technique to weld 2219
aluminum alloy with 6 mm thickness. The microstructure investigation revealed that the weld …

In the present study, the effect of SiC nanoparticles on the microstructure and texture
evolution of friction stir welded AA2024/AA6061 dissimilar joint investigated. The results …
