Description
This book will summarize research work carried out so far on dissimilar metallic material welding using friction stir welding (FSW). Joining of dissimilar alloys and materials are needed in many engineering systems and is considered quite challenging. Research in this area has shown significant benefit in terms of ease of processing, material mixing, and superior mechanical properties such as joint efficiencies. A summary of these results will be discussed along with potential guidelines for designers.
Covers this relatively new material joining process--developed initially for aluminum alloys by UK-based The Welding Institute (TWI) - that is energy efficient, environment friendly, and versatile
About the Author
Nilesh. N. Kulkarni Ph.D. completed his M.E. (electronics and telecommunication) from All India Shri Shivaji Memorial Society's Institute of Information Technology, Pune. His areas of interests include biomedical signal and image processing, pattern recognition, and machine learning. Presently, he is working on biomedical signal processing applications. He is a member of IETE and IEI, India and a member of the IEEE. Rajiv S. Mishra is a professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, and Site Director, NSF IUCRC for Friction Stir Processing, at the University of North Texas. Dr. Mishra's publication record includes 255 papers. Out of these, 10 of his papers have more than 100 citations. He has many 'firsts' in the field of friction stir welding and processing. He co-authored the first review paper (2005), co-edited the first book on the subject (2007), edited/co-edited seven TMS symposium proceedings, and served as guest editor for Viewpoint Set in Scripta Materialia (2008). He also has three patents in this field. He published the first paper on friction stir processing (2000) as a microstructural modification tool.
