Thermo-mechanically Affected Zone in Friction Stir Welding Introduction Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a revolutionary solid-state joining process that has gained immense popularity in various industries due to its advantages over conventional welding methods. However, during the FSW process, a unique zone called the Thermo-mechanically Affected Zone (TMAZ) is formed. …

Friction Stir Welding and Process Introduction Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process that was developed in the 1990s. It involves the joining of metals without melting the material, and instead uses friction and pressure to create a strong bond between the two pieces. FSW has become an …
