9th International Symposium 2012
Annealed AISI 420 martensitic stainless steel (0.46%C, 0.3%Mn, 13.8%Cr) sheets (thickness 3 mm) were subjected to dry or wet friction stir processing (FSP) and the correlation between microstructure, hardness and process parameters was investigated.…

12th International Symposium 2018
In relation to the application of friction stir welding (FSW) to the production of metallic aircraft fuselages, a report is presented into the evolution of the MUVAX (multi use vacuum assisted exoskeleton) concept within the framework of the LuFo V-…

1st International Symposium 1999
The friction stir welding of chromium steel (12%Cr) and of the dissimilar combination of chromium steel with low carbon steel were investigated, and the process economics compared with those of MMA, MIG and submerged arc welding. Welds were made in …
