![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Experimental and numerical studies on friction welding of thixocast A356 aluminum alloy Experimental and numerical studies on friction welding of thixocast A356 aluminum alloy](/preview/png/1445662.png)
This paper highlights the role of globular microstructure on the weldability of semi-solid processed aluminum alloys via high temperature flow behavior. The investigation was carried out on the joining of thixocast A356 aluminum alloy components by friction welding. A thermomechanical model was developed to predict the temperature and stress distributions, as well as to identify the suitable and safe range of parameters. Good comparisons between numerical and experimental results were observed. In addition, metallographic examinations and hardness and tensile tests of the welded samples were carried out. It was found that the tensile strength of the joint is higher than the tensile strength of the parent material for the optimum set of parameters.
