Abstract The present endeavour is to augment mechanical attributes via friction stir processing (FSP) in hypereutectic aluminium–silicon castings by the means of microstructural modifications and defects reduction. Wherein, study proceeds with mainly two approaches namely, alteration tool revolution (TR) number FSP passes. prepared specimens were evaluated investigating volume fraction porositi...

In this paper, the cladding of pure aluminum and a low-carbon steel alloy was performed through friction stir processing with minimal intermetallic compound formation. A 3 mm thick plate clamped on top plate. thick, copper used as backing The tool pin length adjusted to be same upper plate’s thickness (3 mm) longer than 3.2 mm. effect rotation speed (500–1500 rpm) cladding’s quality, microstruc...

Friction stir processing (FSP) is a green fabrication technique that has been effectively adopted in various engineering applications. One of the promising advantages FSP its applicability development surface composites. In current work, new approach for direct friction considered aluminum-based composites reinforced with micro-sized silicon carbide particles (SiC), eliminating prolonged prepro...
