Asymmetry Thermal Analyses of Self-Supporting Friction Stir Welding

Due to the inherent issue of requiring rigid back support, friction stir welding (FSW) has serious limitations for the welding of hollow structures. Self-supporting friction stir welding was proposed to join hollow aluminum extrusions, which could reduce the hindrance of the welding tool and the req...
