Abstract To obtain dissimilar joint for easily making multi-material structures, the characteristics of friction welded joint between ductile cast iron (FCD400) and 5052 Al alloy (A5052) was investigated. The relatively high tensile strength of joint was obtained when that was made with a friction speed of 27.5 s−1, a friction pressure of 20 MPa, a friction time of 1.5 s, and a forge pressure of 270 MPa, respectively. However, this joint had approximately 77% in the tensile strength of the A5052 base metal and that was fractured at the weld interface. Although the weld interface had no intermetallic compound layer, the fractured surface at the A5052 side had some graphite particles that were supplied from the FCD400 side. To improve the joint strength, the graphite particles were reduced from the weld faying surface at the FCD400 side by decarburization treatment. The joint had approximately 96% in the tensile strength of the A5052 base metal and that was fractured between the A5052 side and the weld interface. The joint with high tensile strength as well as the possibility improving the fractured point of that were obtained when those were made with opportune friction welding condition and no graphite particles at the weld faying surface of the FCD400 side.

This paper deals with the friction welding of the tube yoke and the tube of the drive shaft used in light commercial vehicles. Tube yoke made from hot forged microalloyed steel and the tube made from cold drawn steel, with a ratio (thickness/outside diameter ratio) of less than 0.1, were successfully welded by friction welding method. Hardness distributions on both sides of the welded joint across the welding interface were determined and the microstructure of the joint was investigated. Furthermore, joint strength was tested under tensile, static torsional, and torsional fatigue loadings. The tested data were analyzed by Weibull distribution. The maximum hardness value along the welded joint was detected as 553 Hv1. The lowest detected tensile strength of the joint was 13% less than the base materials’ tensile strength. The torsional load carrying capacity of the friction welded thin walled tubular joint without any damage was obtained as 4.252,5 Nm in 95% confidence interval. After conducting fully reversed torsional fatigue tests, the fatigue life of friction welded tubular joints was detected as 220.066,3 cycles.

In this study the effect of process parameters on mechanical and microstructural properties of similar AA6082-T6 joints produced by friction stir welding was investigated. Different samples were produced by varying the transverse welding speeds of the tool from 19 to 75 mm/min and a fixed rotational speed of 635 rpm. A more uniform hardness values in the nugget zone were observed at 48 mm/min welding speed. The lowest hardness values were recorded on nugget zone at all the welding speeds. The increase in welding speed increases ultimate tensile strength and reaches maximum and further increase in welding speed results decrease in tensile strength were observed. The welded joint has highest joint efficiency (52.33 %) obtained at the welding speed of 48 mm/min. Similarly with the increase in welding speed decrease in the percentage elongation were recorded.
