Effect of tool geometry on friction stir processing and fatigue strength of MIG T welds on Al alloys

Several tool geometries were developed and their effect on weld morphology, material flow, microstructure and hardness of processed regions was analyzed. Their effect on fatigue strength of welds was also examined for the most promising tools. The feasibility of FSP MIG T welds was proved. Quality o...
