“…UWFSW offers improved corrosion resistance and higher tensile strength and nugget-zone hardness, making it a promising technique for marine applications and enhancing the structural integrity and durability of welded pipes [79,80]. Underwater FSW (UWFSW) on an Al 6063 alloy demonstrated a high efficiency of 92.7% for ultimate tensile strength at a 4 rpm traverse speed and a 1800 rpm rotational speed, with excellent mechanical properties such as a fine grain structure and low porosity [81]. Friction stir welding (FSW) is a versatile welding method used in various sectors, including offshore structures for dependable connections and propellers for increased strength and durability, that ensures connections can withstand marine conditions [82].…”

“…The heat applied to the compressed composite materials was fixed at 55 • C for 30 min, and the applied compression load was fixed at 50 N, as shown in Figure 3. Finally, by using a low-speed saw, all samples were cut into pieces with 30 mm × 30 mm × 30 mm dimensions, as revealed in Figure 4, to be prepared for the following structural and tribological analyses [46][47][48][49]. Dressing Agents Saline-coated/Volans-treated after heat cleaning None Firstly, the layers (glass or carbon fibers)were set on an isolated flat and smooth surface where isolation was performed using plastic sheets as a release agent.…”

This article investigates the effect of geometrical alternatives for fiber directions on the structural and tribological properties of glass and carbon fibers when molded with epoxy as polymeric composite fabrics for the safety and quality of bushing applications. To confirm the best composite fabric direction, scanning electron microscope and tribological analyses were carried out for the glass and carbon fabrics at horizontal and vertical geometrical alternative orientations. The tribological test was applied using a pin-on-disk tribometer at constant bark velocity of 0.520 m/s against different loads, beginning with 5, 10, 15, and 20 N for the investigated composite samples. The structural measurements demonstrated that the carbon fiber had a high ability to merge with the resin epoxy when compared with the glass fiber. The tribological analysis elucidated that the lower wear volume loss and friction coefficient were obtained when molding the resin epoxy horizontally to the fiber-stacking direction compared with the other vertical direction. Accordingly, the study deduced that the carbon fiber composite material achieves superior wear resistance when molded by resin epoxy horizontally to the direction of tribological wear, which is suitable for several advanced bushing applications.
