Friction Stir Welding of Rapidly Solidified 6082 Alloy: Microstructure and Mechanical Properties
This study investigates the microstructure and mechanical properties of friction stir welded (FSW) joints produced from AA6082 alloy fabricated by rapid solidification and hot extrusion. The base material exhibited a homogeneous microstructure with a fine average grain size of ~1.3 µm, significantly lower than the 5.5...
