Abstract Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is the most promising solid-state metals joining method
introduced in this era. Compared to the conventional fusion welding methods, this FSW can …

The eventual material degradation of steel components in bio-implant, marine, and high-
temperature applications is a critical issue that can have widespread negative ramifications …

A review of the state of research in the field of friction stir welding and processing has been
carried out. The features of plastic flow in friction stir welding and their connection with the …

The hydrogen embrittlement (HE) leads to severe steel degradation of mechanical
properties. The hydrogen atoms diffuse into the steel and get positioned into reversible and …

Based on computed tomography (CT), a method is developed for nondestructive detection of
defects in friction stir welded (FSW) joints. Plates of AA6061-T6 and AA1050 are welded to …

Surface modification of martensitic stainless steel AISI 420 was achieved using friction stir
processing (FSP) with a W–Re pinless tool. The microstructure, hardness and corrosion …

The aim of this study was to characterize mechanical and microstructural characteristics of
friction-stir-welded GL E36 shipbuilding steel. The tool rotational speed was kept constant at …

Orbital friction stir welding (FSW) is a promising approach to joining clad pipes. In this work,
the influence of individual process parameters on the material flow even as, mechanical …

Joining of steel-aluminum thin sheets has been extensively studied at the beginning of 2000
years for automotive applications, in a regard to reduce vehicle weight, reducing the …

Friction stir welding (FSW) are inherently used for joining of dissimilar metals in
manufacturing industries, especially in aerospace and automobile parts, but the …
