This paper investigates the microstructural and mechanical behaviour of overlap micro-joints
produced by a blue laser system with a wavelength of~ 450 nm. AISI 316L stainless steel …

Stationary shoulder friction stir processing of high strength thick AA7075 aluminium alloy
demonstrated tiny gradient in the microstructure refinement across the thickness, which was …

Residual stress induced by welding easily causes deformation and even fracture failure in
welded structures. In this paper, a three-dimensional thermal-mechanical coupling finite …

A thermal model considering the heat generated by friction and plastic deformation is
developed for friction stir welding. The proportion of heat-generated between friction and …

This paper shows the potential of stationary shoulder friction stir welding (SSFSW) for
producing higher quality T-section joints relative to a conventional friction stir welding (FSW) …

Friction stir welding (FSW) has been widely used to join Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys. As the
mechanical properties of the heat affected zone (HAZ) of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys joints are …

Solid-state joining is used for welding similar or dissimilar materials due to its many
advantages like avoiding fusion and formation of a thick intermetallic layer, etc …
