Friction stir welding is not only a solid-state joining method used mostly for metals and
alloys, but also, used for joining various polymer materials. This literature review includes …

Friction stir-based variants have entirely changed the outdated component manufacturing
method. Magnanimously, it has reached notable achievement in the joining, fabricating and …

The microstructural characteristics and mechanical properties of friction stir lap welding
(FSLW) of thin Al-clad Al (1.5 mm) and ultra-thin Al-clad mild steel (0.7 mm) sheets are …

The present endeavour is to augment mechanical attributes via friction stir processing (FSP)
in hypereutectic aluminium–silicon castings by the means of microstructural modifications …

Selection and classification of suitable materials for exotic applications, including
aviation/space, nuclear, oil &gas industries, are still challenging since these applications are …

The electrically assisted pressure joining (EAPJ) of thin bi-layer aluminum-clad aluminum
(Al-clad Al) thin (1.5 mm) sheets is experimentally investigated to overcome the challenge …

The present study examines the influence of carbonaceous reinforcement (graphene oxide,
