Influence of the coupling between the mechanical characteristics and the welding conditions by the FSSW process: case of the bi-material aluminum-steel

The present study investigates the effect of joining parameters on the mechanical characteristics of dissimilar friction stir spot welding (FSSW) between aluminum alloys and galvanized steel. Mechanical performance has been evaluated by shear and microhardness testing. A macrostructural examination...
