TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of the microstructural evolution during FSW/P has been developed, including the mechanisms underlying the development of grain structures and textures, phases, phase transformations and precipitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of multi-walled CNT reinforced aluminium alloy composite via friction stir processing
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used friction stir processing to produce an aluminium alloy reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes, which were embedded into the Al-alloy matrix produced in the stir zone, and their microstructure survived the thermo-mechanical conditions imposed during processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Joining of Silver Nanomaterials at Low Temperatures: Processes, Properties, and Applications
TL;DR: The theoretical background and transition of applications from micro to nanoparticle (NP) pastes based on joining using silver filler materials and nanojoining mechanisms are elucidated, and the future outlook for joining applications with silver nanomaterials is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of real-time cooling rate on microstructure in Laser Additive Manufacturing
TL;DR: An infrared thermal imaging system is developed to compare the effects of cooling rate and melt pool temperature on the microstructure of 316L stainless steel produced by Laser Additive Manufacturing (LAM) with injected powder melting as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Joint formation in dissimilar Al alloy/steel and Mg alloy/steel friction stir spot welds
TL;DR: In this paper, the microstructural features and overlap shear strength properties of friction stir spot welds made between Al 6111 and low carbon steel, and between Mg alloy AM60 and DP600 dual phase steel, are investigated.
