Abstract This research focused on developing a hybrid quality monitoring model through combining the data driven and key engineering parameters to predict the friction stir blind riveting (FSBR) joint quality. The hybrid model was formulated through utilizing the in-situ processing and joint property data. The in-situ data involved sensor fusion (force and torque signals) and key processing parameters (spindle speed, feed rate and stacking sequence) for data-driven modeling. The quality of the FSBR joints was defined by the tensile strength. Further, the joint cross-sectional analysis and failure modes in lap-shear tests were employed to confirm the efficacy of the proposed model and development of the process-structure-property relationship.

Friction stir welding is a method of materials processing that enables the joining of similar and dissimilar materials. The process, as originally designed by The Welding Institute (TWI), provides a unique approach to manufacturing—where materials can be joined in many designs and still retain mechanical properties that are similar to, or greater than, other forms of welding. This process is not free of defects that can alter, limit, and occasionally render the resulting weld unusable. Most common amongst these defects are kissing bonds, wormholes and cracks that are often hidden from visual inspection. To identify these defects, various nondestructive testing methods are being used. This paper presents background to the process of friction stir welding and identifies major process parameters that affect the weld properties, the origin, and types of defects that can occur, and potential nondestructive methods for ex-situ detection and in-situ identification of these potential defects, which can then allow for corrective action to be taken.

The hot rolled AA6082 aluminium alloy with aluminide dispersoids is deformed up to large strains to obtain a fine grained microstructure. Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) is carried out on rolled plates by means of a device provided by MTS System Corporation. FEM simulations determine that the material can flow up to local strains between 10 and 50 when the material reaches temperatures between 300-500°C. With this information, hot torsion tests at constant temperatures are carried out in a Gleeble ® 3800 machine for different strain rates. In both cases, in situ water quenching is applied to freeze the microstructure and avoid any static recrystallization effect after hot deformation. Light optical microscopy is used to identify the evolution of the grains as a function of the local deformation parameters determined by FEM simulations. The microstructure development by FSSW as well as by torsion is then further characterized by means of EBSD. At small strains the material deforms mainly by dynamic recovery with small low angle grain boundary formation and boundary dragging by fine aluminides and Mg2Si. At large strains grain refinement by continuous dynamic recrystallization takes place heterogeneously as a function of the original crystallographic orientation and precipitation state of each grain.
