Friction stir welding of aluminum 6061-T6 in presence of watercooling: Analyzing mechanical properties and residual stress distribution

Underwater friction stir welding of AA6061-T6 was carried out in order to improve mechanical properties of fabricated joints in butt mode configuration. Full factorial experimental design was used to design the required experiments and finding effect of water cooling on various combinations of tool...
