Effect of tool rotational speed on mechanical properties and microstructure of friction stir welding joints within Ti–6Al–4V alloy sheets

Friction stir welding of Ti–6Al–4V alloy sheets was successfully performed with a tungsten carbide (WC) tool, and the effect of the tool rotational speed on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints was evaluated. The microstructure was investigated using field emission scanning ele...
