Mechanical Properties of ADC12-6061 Aluminium Alloy Joints Produced by Friction Stir Welding

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of present work is to investigate the mechanical and microstructural properties of dissimilar ADC12 and 6061 aluminium alloy joints produced by friction stir welding (FSW). The microstructure of joints has been observed by employing optical microscope. Furthermore, the welded joints have been tested under tension at room temperature in order to analyse their mechanical properties. At last, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) was employed to observe the specimens’ fracture morphology.
