The versatility of FSW as a joining technique for ferrous and non-ferrous metals depends on
fine-tuned process parameters. To date, reports of mixed success exist in the literature on …

Tool wear is a key issue in the friction stir welding of high strength materials like steel-,
titanium-, and nickel-based alloys. The wear assessment is an important aspect for …

Abstract In this work, Friction Stir Welding (FSW) of magnesium alloy ME21 in a T-profile is
performed with a relatively higher welding speed than usual in this material. The FSW …

This review paper thoroughly investigates the challenges associated with constructing polar
icebreakers, given the increasing feasibility of Arctic navigation attributed to global warming …

Dissimilar galvanized steel (GS) and mild steel Q235 are difficult to weld due to their high
melting point and the zinc layer of GS. This study reports the effect of different welding …

Steels are preferred in the building of commercial ships because they can be easily welded
and supplied. Although it varies according to the parts of the ships, it is known that high …

In the present work, mechanical and microstructural properties of friction stir welded similar
DP600 steel were investigated. The sheets were butt welded with a single pass and three …

AA 6061 alloy and interstitial-free (IF) steel plates were joined by the friction stir welding
(FSW) method, and the microstructure, mechanical properties, and biaxial stretch formability …

In this research, numerical as well as experimental analysis on friction stir welding (FSW) of
dissimilar steels, ie DH36 steel and AISI 1008 steel, was performed. A 3D heat transfer FE …

Both the reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (RAFM) steel and oxide dispersion
strengthened (ODS) alloys have shown high potential applications in the nuclear industry. In …
