Evaluation of post-weld heat treatments for corrosion protection in friction stir welded 2024 and 7075 aluminum alloys

This dissertation presents the results of an investigation into the corrosion resistance of friction stir welding (FSW) for aerospace structures. Two of the most common aerospace aluminum alloys, 2024 and 7075, were investigated. In the as-welded condition, both alloys were found to be highly suscep...
