Micro-friction stir spot welding (µFSSW) is one type of that suitable for joining lightweight materials. One the challenges in materials with µFSSW material easily perforated, or join not strong enough, so it necessary to select right parameters. In this article discusses about investigates micro-Friction Stir Spot Welding parameters on weld geometry, mechanical properties, and metallography di...

A6063S-T5 is a material that frequently used in construction materials, and many cases, the surface of coated with composite films for durability design purposes．However, if interfered as foreign substance joint while still coated, it may easily have an adverse effect on strength． Therefore, usually necessary to remove before joining or coat part after joining．In this paper, process friction st...

The initial microstructure plays an important role in determining the spatial and temporal evolution of the microstructure during friction stir welding (FSW). The overall kinetics of microstructural evolution is location sensitive and the effect of the process strain, strain rate and thermal cycle creates complexities. In the present study, magnesium based WE43 alloy has been welded employing t...
