Characterization of residual stress as a function of friction stir welding parameters in ODS steel MA956

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === This thesis characterizes the residual stresses generated by friction stir welding of ODS steel MA956 as a function of heat index. The heat index of a weld is used to determine relative heat input among different friction stir welding condit...
