Rotary friction welding (RFW) was employed to join high‑carbon steel SKH51 rods. To
mitigate the risk of brittle martensitic transformation at the weld interface, high friction …

Polylactic acid (PLA) stands out as a biomaterial with immense potential, primarily owing to
its innate biodegradability. Conventional methods for manufacturing PLA encompass …

Hollow aluminum panels are designed to be both rigid and lightweight, making them ideal
for structural applications where material efficiency is critical. However, reliable welding …

The continuous drive friction welding (CDFW) stands out for its low energy consumption
within the welding realm. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) represents a high-performance …

Friction welding is a solid-state joining process that can avoid many common defects
associated with fusion welding methods. In this research, carbon steel rods of two different …

Friction welding (FW) has emerged as a promising approach for joining materials that are
traditionally difficult to weld together due to their distinct properties. This research delves into …

Driveshafts are used in all vehicles, and their service life is expected to be at least three
years or 100.000 km. Many driveshaft manufacturers prefer friction welding due to its …

This study intends to investigate the effect of forging pressure (20, 26 and 32 MPa) on
microstructure and tensile properties of rotary friction-welded (RFW) shaft-to-plate joints of …

The present study investigated the effect of post-heat treatment (PWHT) on the
microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of rotary friction welded AISI …

Polylactic acid (PLA) is extensively utilized in the fabrication of medical devices. However,
due to the limitations imposed by the size of additive manufacturing platforms, large medical …
