Experimental study on the role of tool geometry in determining the strength & soundness of wrought Az80a Mg alloy joints during FSW process

Abstract: An investigation was conducted to find out the influencing role of the geometry of the FSW tool on the tensile strength, corrosion resistance, wear rate of the wrought AZ80A Mg alloy joints during the FSW process. FSW tools with two uniquely different geometries, namely stepped cylindrical shoulder tool and stepless cylindrical shoulder tool were employed at different combinations of speeds of rotation and traversing speed. Comprehensive observations & investigations were also carried out regarding the tensile… Show more

“…All friction stir welded joints exhibited a basin‐shaped stir zone, Figure 5. The tool pin profile determines the stir zone shape, controlling the material flow in the pin‐affected area [31, 39]. The stir zone exhibited a similar geometry at the FSW‐1, FSW‐4 and FSW‐7 welded joints.…”

“…Alloys of Copper have the immense capability for usage in a variety of industrial sectors including marine systems, construction, transportation, for encapsulating material wastages especially nuclear wastes etc and this usage is possible mainly because of their 2 superior thermal and electrical conductivities, a unique combination of ductility and strength, exemplary resistance to corrosion etc [1][2][3][4][5] Even though there exists an everlasting demand for the alloys of copper (Cu) in several industrial sectors, the usage of these alloys are restricted due to the difficulty in welding them [6][7][8][9]. Fusion-based joining techniques are not suitable for copper, as the existence of pernicious and eruptive constituents such as zinc (present in the alloys of Cu) and other oxides (adherent in nature) deteriorate the quality of weld [10][11][12][13]. In addition to this, the peculiar characteristic features of alloys of Cu namely, larger level of thermal diffusivity, elevated oxidation rate, etc also hinder the successful welding of alloys of Cu by fusion-based joining techniques [14,15].…”
