Characteristics of FSW and UWFSW joints of AA2519-T87 aluminium alloy: Effect of tool rotation speed

TLDR
In this article, the effect of tool rotation speed on the stir zone characteristics and the resultant tensile properties of the FSW and UWFSW joints was investigated. And the results showed that the UWFSW joint made using the lower tool rotational speed of 1200-rpm exhibited superior tensile property than FSW joints.

Low-Temperature Friction-Stir Welding of 2024 Aluminum

TL;DR: In this article, the average residual weld zone grain size has been observed to increase near the top of the weld, and to decrease with distance on either side of the welding-zone centerline, an d this corresponds roughly to temperature variations within the weld zone.
