Dissimilar butt joint of pure aluminum and commercially pure copper was prepared using
friction stir welding (FSW) process and subsequent post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) was …

A computational fluid dynamics model was developed for numerical simulation of heat &
mass transfer and material mixing in friction stir welding of dissimilar aluminum and …

The variation of forces, torque, absorbed energy, and temperature distribution during friction
stir welding process is investigated. Friction stir welding experiments were performed on an …

Al-Cu bimetallic sheets were friction stir welded by three different kinds of pin profiles
(threaded cylindrical, threaded conical and pyramidal). Among the three pin geometries …

The objective of this work is to analyse the material distribution in dissimilar friction stir
welded joints of Al 1050 and Copper. During dissimilar friction stir welding, mixing of …

Friction stir welding (FSW) joints are inevitably accompanied with the change in shape of the
abutting surfaces due to the tool movement. Further, the formation of brittle intermetallics …

In this paper, mechanical models for FSW are developed for a square pin profile tool. The
models express the oscillation of the forces over time and their mean values. The welding …
