Abstract:This research work aims to investigate thermal fields, weld strength and microstructural analyses of dissimilar welded structures of AA6082 and AA7075 developed using friction stir welding process. Three different tool shapes were used for joining of these plates to study the effect tool profiles on thermal cycles and their behavior on weld strength. The process parameters were considered same for three tool weldments. During welding, peak temperatures and their distribution towards along transverse direction … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
