ABSTRACT / САЖЕТАК:
Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding method innovatived in 1991 by Wayne Thomas at the Welding Institute (TWI) of the UK. In the beginning, It was considered a laboratory curiosity, but it soon came to provide many benefits in the aviation, railway, and shipbuilding industries, especially in the manufacture of aluminum alloys as a major bonding process. The FSW method has many advantages, including environmental friendliness and energy saving. This technique is designed to join high-strength aluminum alloys and metal materials that are difficult to be joined using the traditional processes. This research reviews a set of research on friction stir welding of aluminum alloys.
