Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state process widely used to join dissimilar aluminium alloys. High quality and strength joints can be fabricated using this technique when compared to other conventional methods. The welding parameters play major role in determining the quality of the weld. This paper aims in presenting the effect of heat input on tensile properties of the joints between ...

Recently friction stir welding for manufacturing of welded tubes has been developed. Friction stir welding is a continuous solid state welding process in which a non-consumable rotating tool using severe plastic deformation Can join materials can be join materials. Commonly, a portion of a specially shaped rotating tool is plunged between metalsjoint cross section and adjacent faces of the join...

The technically pure copper is being replaced by aluminium as conductive material in electrical transformers for power systems. This evolution brings new manufacturing challenges. One major difficulty is the limited weld ability and non-acceptable residual deformations of the aluminium, when welded by fusion arc welding processes. The Friction Stir Welding (FSW) was selected for evaluation cons...

Welding is a suitable and better process to manufacture complex objects for aerospace, naval, automotive structures. Service conditions complexity in load acting force the manufactures make joints between dissimilar materials. Thus, there need efficient welding techniques form sound an understanding of imperfections their effects. In this study attempt has been made joining feasibility aluminum...

Numerous industrial applications, particularly those in the transport industry, require joining of dissimilar materials which offers considerable benefits terms low cost, design flexibility, and weight reduction for overall structures. The problems associated with conventional fusion welding processes have stimulated researchers recent years to develop new methods are difficult join. Friction s...

Abstract Friction stir welding (FSW) is a complex joining process which governed by multiple intertwined physical phenomena. Besides friction, inelastic heat generation, and conduction, it involves high plastic deformations, resulting in need for numerical method being able to handle all these. Such scheme smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), mesh-free computational technique. Absence of fixe...
