12th International Symposium 2018
Dissimilar lap joints between 2024-T3 aluminium alloy (Al, 4.6%Cu, 1.3%Mg, 0.56%Mn) and Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy (Ti, 6.21%Al, 3.99%V) were fabricated by friction stir welding (FSW) and the influence of process parameters on hook shape and surface r…

8th International Symposium 2010
The use of semi-friction stir processing to improve the facing surface layer of flange joints in casings of high-voltage switchgears, filled with electro-insulating SF6 gas, was examined. The influence of tool shape and size, and welding parameters …

10th International Symposium 2014
A Taguchi design of experiments approach was employed to investigate the effect of varying process parameters (rotational speed, welding time and plunge depth) on process data for refill friction stir spot welding of AA 6082-T6 aluminium alloys. The…

6th International Symposium 2006
A geometric feature, termed the "Wiper", was developed to improve the weld track surface finish produced by friction stir welding (FSW) and processing tools with scrolled shoulders, and experiments were undertaken to investigate the influence of "Wi…

11th International Symposium 2016
An experimental investigation was undertaken to study the effects of different pin profiles (threaded conical, square, pentagon and hexagon) and the same process parameters on temperature distribution around the tool and resulting microstructure dur…

8th International Symposium 2010
A fully integrated approach to facilitate optimisation of the friction stir welding (FSW) process was developed, incorporating a model for the FSW process, coupling material flow and thermal analysis, a model for precipitation evolution, a microstru…

10th International Symposium 2014
Friction stir welding (FSW) was employed to fabricate butt joints in AW 5083 (Al, 4-4.9%Mg, 0.4-1%Mn) aluminium alloy plates (thickness 10 mm) and the influence of process parameters and tool geometry on the character and quality of welded joints wa…

9th International Symposium 2012
An investigation is presented into the influence of tool flats, tool runout magnitude and relative tool runout orientation on the high speed forces acting transversely and longitudinally on the friction stir welding tool. Partial penetration bead-on…
