Enhanced mechanical properties of thermo-mechanically affected zone of friction-stir welded AZ61 magnesium alloy joint

Friction-stir welded (FSW) magnesium alloy joints frequently fracture at thermo-mechanically affected zone (TMAZ), and the joints exhibit unsatisfactory welding efficiency and ductility. The TMAZ is considered as the weakest region of the entire joint. Enhance the mechanical properties of TMAZ can i...
