Characterization of Microstructural Refinement and Hardness Profile Resulting from Friction Stir Processing of 6061-T6 Aluminum Alloy Extrusions
In this study, the change in microstructure and microhardness adjacent to the tool during the friction stir processing (FSP) of 6061-T6 extrusions was investigated. Results showed that the as-received extrusions contained Fe-rich constituent particles with two distinct size distributions: coarse par...
