Internal Material Flow Layers in AA6082-T6 Butt-Joints during Bobbin Friction Stir Welding

Bobbin friction stir welding with a double-sided tool configuration produces a symmetrical solid-state joint. However, control of the process parameters to achieve defect-free welds is difficult. The internal flow features of the AA6082-T6 butt-joints in bobbin friction stir welding were evaluated u...
