Transformation in Stir Zone of Friction Stir Welded Carbon Steels with Different Carbon Contents
Ling Cui,Hidetoshi Fujii,Nobuhiro Tsuji,Kazuhiro Nakata,Kiyoshi Nogi,Rinsei Ikeda,Muneo Matsushita +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, five types of ferrite-pearlite structure carbon steels with different carbon contents were friction stir welded under various welding conditions, and the mechanical properties and microstructures of the FSW carbon steel joints were evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of friction stir welding of high strength steel sheet
TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of welding conditions on microstructures and mechanical properties of the welds was investigated for friction stir welding of advanced high strength steel (AHSS) sheets with tensile strength grades between 590 and 1180 N/mm−2.

Indirect spot welding method
Muneo Matsushita,Rinsei Ikeda +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an indirect spot welding is proposed for welding members including at least two overlapping steel sheets that have a ferrite phase as the main phase by holding a welding electrode (23) against a steel sheet (21) from one side while applying pressure with the electrode, attaching a feeding point (24) to the steel sheet at the other side at a location remote from the welding electrode, and allowing current to flow between the electrode and the feeding point, regardless of the rigidity of the members.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Dimensional Visualization of Material Flow During Friction Stir Welding of Steel and Aluminum
TL;DR: In this paper, the material flow of steel was three dimensionally visualized by x-ray radiography using two pairs of X-ray transmission real-time imaging systems, and was then compared with aluminum.
