The tool is a key component in the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process, but the tool degrades and changes shape during use; however, only a limited number of experimental studies have been undertaken in order to understand the effect that worn tool g...

Finite element (FE) process modelling of the inertia friction welding (IFW) between two tubular CrMoV components has been carried out using the DEFORM-2D (v10.2) software. This model has been validated against experimental test welds of the material;...
