Effect of Ultrasonic Application during Friction Stir Welding on Microstructure and Properties of AA2024 Fixed Joints

Article Preview

Abstract:

Microstructure and mechanical properties of aluminum alloy 2024 fixed joint produced by ultrasonic assisted friction stir welding are described. Tensile strength, microhardness, grain size and zone area are measured and compared with ones of joint produced without ultrasonic vibration. Analyzing this data authors make conclusion about ultrasonic vibration effect on friction stir welding joint quality.
