Dissimilar friction stir welding and post-weld heat treatment of Ti-6Al-4V and AA7075 producing joints of unprecedented strength

Dissimilar welding of Ti and Al alloys is challenging due to the potential formation of brittle intermetallics, which can compromise weld strength. Friction stir welding (FSW) is an advanced joining method with the potential to drastically reduce or prevent the formation of intermetallic phases beca...
