Recently, fatigue tests have been performed to investigate the fatigue behavior of friction stir butt-welded aluminum alloy joints. However, the joints of more than 10 mm thick plates have rarely been tested, nor has the effect of the inclined angle of the friction stir welding line to the applied s

The role of longitudinal residual stress on propagation of fatigue cracks was examined in friction stir welds produced in 2024-T351 aluminum alloy. Fatigue crack growth rate was obtained through constant DK Iapp tests for notches at different distances from the weld centerline. Subsequently, crack g
Friction stir welding (FSW) can be used to weld 7xxx series wrought aluminium alloys. As these materials are age-hardenable, their properties can change with time. This work used the neutron diffraction technique to measure the residual stresses around a FSW in a 7xxx alloy and to determine how thes
