Improving the mechanical properties of a friction stir welded AZ31 joint by adjusting the microstructure and texture

Softening caused by an inhomogeneous fibre texture distribution during friction stir welding (FSW) Mg joints can deteriorate the joint performance. This study aims to understand the effect of microstructure and texture distribution in joints on the deformation behaviour and mechanical properties of...
