About this book Friction stir welding FSW and its variants, friction stir spot welding and friction stir processing, are used in numerous industrial applications and there is considerable activity in the development of FSW processes and their applications. This volume covers the seventh proceedings in this recurring TMS symposium, focusing on all aspects of the science and technology involved in friction stir welding and processing.

This book lays out the fundamentals of friction stir welding and processing and builds toward practical perspectives. The authors describe the links between the thermo-mechanical aspects and the microstructural evolution, and use of these for the development of the friction stir process as a broader metallurgical tool for microstructural modification and manufacturing. The fundamentals behind the practical aspects of tool design, process parameter selection and weld related defects are discussed. Local microstructural refinement has enabled new concepts of superplastic forming and enhanced low temperature forming. The collection of friction stir based technologies is a versatile set of solid state manufacturing tools. Skip to main content Skip to table of contents.

Fatigue in Friction Stir Welding provides knowledge on how to design and fabricate high performance, fatigue resistance FSW joints. It summarizes fatigue characterizations of key FSW configurations, including butt and lap-shear joints.
