“…For example, Kumar et al [42] in his study implemented the idea of studying the impact of tool rotation and welding speed on joining two dissimilar aluminium metals, Al 5083 and Al 6061. A comparative study of gas tungsten arc welding and friction stir welding presented by Kotari et al [43] was also carried out on aluminium joints. A much more recent study by C et al [44], focussed on determining the influence of pitch line velocity on tensile strength of friction stir welded AA2014-T6 Aluminium alloy joints.…”

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a topic of immense interest to researchers worldwide. The solid-state welding process has gained considerable popularity in the joining industry, replacing the orthodox welding techniques. To understand the necessity of friction stir welding, in this study, literature on experimental studies of friction stir welding on Steel, Aluminium, Magnesium and Titanium alloys have been summarised. Due to the interaction of multiple process parameters and complex geometry in FSW, the experimental study of this type of welding faces a challenge that can be overcome using numerical analysis like the finite element method. However, before initiating the design of the finite element model, a correct set of parameters and modelling methods needs to be made by the user to obtain results of high precision. This paper summarised the results obtained by various numerical modelling methods based on the review of over 100 research articles and suggested a suitable way for particular applications. Results show that ANSYS and ABAQUS are mainly preferred for friction simulation, thermomechanical behaviour, stress and strain analysis, while FLUENT finds its application mainly in material flow simulations. This review paper summarises both the experimental studies and the numerical approach to FSW modelling by distinctly mentioning the merits and demerits in each case. The results summarised would be beneficial for future researchers in the areas of FSW of advanced materials. Also the summarized results would be useful to choose the appropriate experimental parameter and numerical analysis techniques for FSW of various materials.

“…Scanning Electron Microscopic images reveal the formation of Intermetallic Compounds in aluminum-Steel welded butt joint [22][23][24][25][26] . In the welded wrinkle interface, a noticeable difference in thickness of the IMC layer has been observed, resulting in a variety of models grouped in one layer.…”

Automobile bodies made by mix of steel and aluminum composites are getting famous in present days to decrease weight. Present work means to exhibit the strength of Aluminum and steel welded joint. Primary measures centered in this work are strength forecast, streamlining of welding measure boundaries and investigation of intermetallics. Base materials utilized are AA6061 aluminum alloys and SS304 hardened steel alloy. BCuP-4 copper filler bar is utilized for TIG welding/brazing of base metals. Taguchi L27 symmetrical exhibit with three elements is taken for plan of analyses. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) a tool used to determine a remarkable effect of welding parameters and their performance significantly. In addition, experimental Tensile strength is compared to predicted values based on ANN. The results were found to be satisfactory. Formation Of IMCs were studied by doing SEM analysis.

This study investigated the mechanical and corrosion properties of Friction Stir Welded (FSW) and Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welded phosphor bronze (CuSn4) joints. Corrosion tests were conducted on the welded joints, and the percentage of weight loss due to corrosion was measured at different time intervals. Results revealed that the percentage of weight loss due to corrosion of the TIG joint increased with time, whereas the percentage of weight loss due to corrosion of the FSW welded joint remained constant. This could be attributed to recrystallisation that happened in the solid-state welding, which reduced corrosion in the FSW welded joint. In addition, tensile tests were conducted to evaluate the strength of the joints. FSW with a spindle speed of 1300 rpm, weld speed of 0.06mm/sec, plunge depth of 0.25mm, pin profile of pentagon, and flat shoulder profile was found to produce good results. TIG welding with a welding speed of 1.75mm/sec, a gas flow rate of 7.5 cm3/min and an amperage of 120A also produced good results. The tensile strength of FSW was found to be approximately 1.6 times higher than that of TIG welding.
