12.7-mm thick plates of 6061-T6511 aluminum alloy and high hardness steel (528 HV) were successfully joined by a friction stir bonding process using a tungsten Process parameter variation experiments, which geometry, plunge and traverse rates, tool offset, spindle tilt, and rotation speed, were conducted to develop a parameter set which yielded a defect free joint. Laboratory tensile tests exhi...

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...

In this paper, AA5250 aluminum sheets are reinforced with boron nitride (BN), silicon carbide (SiC), oxide (Al2O3), and vanadium (VC). The nanocomposites metal matrix manufactured using friction stir processing (FSP). A novel analytical comparison based on an assessment of mechanical, physical properties the cost materials was conducted to help engineers designers choose most economically feasi...

Aluminum alloys are used in many applications in which the combination of high strength and low weight is attractive; ship building, air frame, transportation industry etc. are some areas in which the low weight can be significant value. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a new welding technique particularly well suited to aluminum alloys though this technique is also used for other materials. Fric...
