Examination of the High Tensile Ductility Improvement in an As-Solutionized AA7075 Alloy with the Aid of a Friction Stir Process

The ductility enhancement of an AA7075 aluminum alloy aided by a friction stir process (FSP) and various heat treatments was investigated and compared in terms of outcome with full annealing (O). The results indicate that a big improvement in the tensile ductility was achieved by freezing the sample...
