The transportation industries are increasingly focussing on enhancing the fuel efficiency of vehicles because of environmental regulations and costs. A solution to this problem can be manufacturing structures having the combination of both high-strength steel alloy as well as lightweight aluminium alloy. Researchers have been drawn towards solid-state joining techniques like friction stir welding (FSW) because of the challenges encountered in fusing steel and aluminium through traditional fusion welding methods. Unlike fusion welding, FSW does not involve the melting of parent materials. This review paper has made an effort to provide a comprehensive overview of the current research and development in the field of dissimilar FSW steel-Aluminium systems. The paper highlights the influence of Tool material and designs and also the influence of process parameters on weld quality. Moreover, the paper investigates the microstructural characteristics, Intermetallic compounds, mechanical properties, and common defects of dissimilar FSW joints, focusing on factors influencing joint strength and hardness. Furthermore, the environmental sustainability aspects of dissimilar have been discussed. Finally, existing variants and potential research areas are identified to enhance improved mechanical properties and process efficiency.","PeriodicalId":23605,"journal":{"name":"Welding International","volume":"21 6","pages":"91 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139446637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The attention was put on the role of the pin geometries in temperature distribution, microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of the joints. The history of changing welding temperature is validated through both experimental work and numerical simulation. The results showed that the highest welding temperature was obtained about 480 °C at triflate tapered thread pin in both experiment and numerical simulation. In all cases, the tensile strength was reached approximately 200 MPa with the joint efficiency of 80% in comparison with base metal. The fracture location of the joints was found in the heat affected zone, where the lowest value of hardness was obtained. The stress of root bend was lower than that of face bend. Crack-free on the welding surface of face bend indicated that the joints are ductile. However, the specific influence of pin geometries on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of the joints is insignificant in this work.","PeriodicalId":23605,"journal":{"name":"Welding International","volume":"7 8","pages":"116 - 127"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139446652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An initial scanning electron microscope study was conducted to determine the microstructure of the sample. In addition to measuring and correlating microstructures and welding parameters, mechanical properties like tensile strength and microhardness are also measured. Here, friction force (FF) and specific wear rate (SWR) were carried out to analyse the tribological behaviour of the weld joint. It was found that the weld MS IS2062 by subsequent welding achieved 15% and 5% higher yield strength and 5% and 4% harder than SMAW and GTAW. Pull-off and cracks were found in the tensile fracture image, and changes in grain boundaries have been observed in the microstructural study. The contact pressure shows the greatest influence on roughness and FF; at the same time, velocity influences the SWR, as found in the experimental results. The subsequent welding process was performed with good stabilisation by balancing between the SMAW and GTAW welding, and to obtain superior properties, we must optimise our results and choose the best possible method.","PeriodicalId":23605,"journal":{"name":"Welding International","volume":"26 1","pages":"57 - 66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139236191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
