Book Description
Through a series of carefully designed experiments, characterization and some modeling tools, this work is aimed at studying the role of thermal profiles on different microstructural zones and associated properties like strength and corrosion through a variation of weld parameters, thermal boundary conditions and material temper. Two different alloys belonging to the Al-Cu and Al-Cu-Li system in different temper conditions- peak aged (T8) and annealed (O) were used. A 3D-thermal pseudo mechanical (TPM) model is developed for the FSW process using heat transfer module in COMSOL Multiphysics and is based on a heat source wherein the temperature dependent yield shear stress is used for the heat generation. The precipitation and coarsening model is based on the Kampmann and Wagner theoretical framework and accounts for the competition between the various nucleation sites for both metastable and equilibrium precipitates. The model predicts different precipitate mean radius and volume fraction for the various zones in the friction stir welded material. A model for the yield strength is developed which considers contributions from different strengthening mechanisms. The predictions of the each models have been verified against experimental data and literature. At constant advance per rotation, the peak temperature decreases with a decrease in traverse speed and increases with an increase in tool rotation. Weld properties were significantly affected by choice of thermal boundary conditions in terms of backing plate diffusivity. Weld conditions with a higher peak temperature and high strain rate results in more dissolution of precipitates and fragmentation of constituent particles resulting in a better corrosion behavior for the weld nugget. For a peak aged temper of 2XXX alloys, the weld nugget experiences dissolution of strengthening precipitates resulting in a lower strength and the Heat affected zone (HAZ) experiences coarsening of precipitates. For an annealed material, both the weld nugget and HAZ experiences dissolution of precipitates with an increase in strength in the weld nugget.

Book Description
In this work, the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties of dissimilar friction stir welded AA6061-to-AA7050 aluminum alloys were evaluated. Experimental results from this study revealed that static strength increased with the tool rotational speed and was correlated with the material intermixing. Fully-reversed low cycle fatigue experimental results showed an increase in the strain hardening properties as well as the number of cycles-to-failure as the tool rotational speed was increased. Furthermore, under both static and cyclic loading, fracture of the joint was dominated by the AA6061 alloy side of the weld. In addition, inspection of the fatigue surfaces revealed that cracks initiated from intermetallic particles located near the surface. In order to determine the corrosion resistance of the dissimilar joint, corrosion defects were produced on the crown surface of the weld by static immersion in 3.5% NaCl for various exposure times. Results revealed localized corrosion damage in the thermo-mechanically affected and heat affected zones. Results demonstrated a decrease in the fatigue life, with evidence of crack initiation at the corrosion defects; however, the fatigue life was nearly independent of the exposure time. This can be attributed to total fatigue life dominated by incubation time. Furthermore, two types of failure were observed: fatigue crack initiation in the AA6061 side at high strain amplitudes (>0.3%); and fatigue crack initiation in the AA7050 side at low strain amplitudes (

Book Description
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is known to result in a complex microstructural development, with features that remain unexplained, such as: the formation of the onion rings structure. Moreover, various microstructural factors have been suggested to control the strength in Al-Mg AA5xxx welds, without identifying their relative contribution. Furthermore, the influence of the basemetal microstructural parameters (e.g. grains, intermetallic particles, stored energy) on the microstructure-property development has not been previously investigated. These issues are addressed in the present study.

Book Description
Rising demand for improved fuel economy and structural efficiency are the key factors for use of aluminum alloys for light weighting in aerospace industries. Precipitation strengthened 2XXX and 7XXX aluminum alloys are the key aluminum alloys used extensively in aerospace industry. Welding and joining is the critical step in manufacturing of integrated structures. Joining of precipitation strengthened aluminum alloys using conventional fusion welding techniques is difficult and rather undesirable in as it produces dendritic microstructure and porosities which can undermine the structural integrity of weldments. Friction stir welding, invented in 1991, is a solid state joining technique inherently benefitted to reduces the possibility of common defects associated with fusion based welding techniques. Weldability of various 2XXX and 7XXX aluminum alloys via friction stir welding was investigated. Microstructural and mechanical property evolution during welding and after post weld heat treatment was studied using experimental techniques such as transmission electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, hardness testing, and tensile testing. Various factors such as peak welding temperature, cooling rate, external cooling methods (thermal management) which affects the strength of the weldment were studied. Post weld heat treatment of AL-Mg-Li alloy produced joint as strong as the parent material. Modified post weld heat treatment in case of welding of Al-Zn-Mg alloy also resulted in near 100% joint efficiency whereas the maximum weld strength achieved in case of welds of Al-Cu-Li alloys was around 80-85% of parent material strength. Low dislocation density and high nucleation barrier for the precipitates was observed to be responsible for relatively low strength recovery in Al-Cu-Li alloys as compared to Al-Mg-Li and Al-Zn-Mg alloys.

Book Description
Abstract: Friction stir welding is a process with significant potential to eliminate difficulties such as solidification cracking, porosity, and spatter which are often associated with fusion welding of aluminum alloys. Despite the advantages of friction stir welding, local variations in the weld and HAZ microstructure can limit the mechanical properties, introduce defects or present difficulties during welding itself. This work was an investigation into the metallurgical aspects of friction stir welding focusing on microstructure evolution and the relationship between the microstructures developed and weld mechanical properties. Three alloys representative of different alloying systems were used to compare the welding behavior of the various systems. Friction stir welds were produced in 6061 - T6, 5454 - H34, 5454 - 0 and 2195 - T8, followed by microstructural characterization and mechanical testing. Microstructure characterization consisted of optical microscopy and microhardness testing. Mechanical testing included tensile testing and bend ductility testing. The mechanical failures were characterized using optical metallography and SEM and then related to the weld microstructures. Experiments to measure the thermal cycles during welding and the material flow within the stirred region were also performed.

Book Description
The microstructural evolution and resultant mechanical properties during friction stir welding (FSW) of precipitation strengthened aluminum alloys depend on initial temper as well as FSW process parameters. Al-2024 alloy under two different initial tempers, T3 and T8, was used in this study. FSW bead-on-plate runs were performed at different values of process parameters (tool rotation rate and tool traverse speed). Microstructure and mechanical properties of the nugget region and heat affected zone (HAZ) were evaluated. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed that in the nugget region, presence of GPB zone results from the partial dissolution of Al2CuMg phase. The microstructure and tensile properties were found to be independent of the initial temper of the material in the nugget region. In the HAZ region, tensile properties increased at higher heat-index values for T3 condition, and decreased monotonically for T8 condition.
