Frictional behaviour of mild steel in friction welding

Mechanical evaluation and thermal modelling of friction welding of mild steel and aluminium

“…Since 1958, a considerable amount of research and development about friction welding has been carried out for industrial use (Duffin and Bahrani, 1973). In friction welding (Vill, 1962), the coalescence of materials is obtained through the combined effects of pressure and relative motion of the two workpieces heating the joint interface and inducing plastic deformation of the material.…”

Influence of deceleration phase on properties of friction welded pipelines using intermediate ring

“…[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] The papers 12-15 discuss the torque and shortening characteristics during the deceleration phase for the friction welding of bars. The latter and the publication 17 state that a higher tensile strength of the welded bars is obtained when the deceleration is longer.…”

Low-cost and high sensitively microcontroller based control unit for a friction welding machine

“…The friction process is an efficient and controllable method of plasticizing a specific area on a material, and thus it is removing contaminants in preparation for welding, surfacing/cladding or extrusion. The process is environmentally friendly as it does not require consumables (filler wire, flux or gas) and produces no fume [1][2][3][4][5]. Friction welding is a solid-state process in which the heat for welding is produced by direct conversion of mechanical energy to thermal energy at the interface of the samples without the application of electric energy or heat from the other sources to the samples [6].…”
