In the present investigation friction stir processing (FSP) is carried out by single and multipass FSP on a 5086 aluminum alloy to modify microstructure and mechanical properties. The processing is carried out at constant rotation speed of 1025 rpm and at a traverse speed of 30 mm/min. Inhomogeneous microstructural distribution was observed across the processed zone. EBSD analysis has been done to evaluate the microstructure. Overlapping passes is showing same grain size as in single pass FSPed material. Material processed using multi pass FSP at 30 mm/min is showing higher mechanical strength as compared to base material. The bulk material produced due to multipass seems to be good for superplastic forming applications.

This research characterizes the changes in microstructure that occur in friction stir welded extrusions of a novel 7042 aluminum alloy. Due to the presence of scandium the base material preserved the deformation microstructure with elongated grains and fairly high dislocation density. The temperature increase with simultaneous severe plastic deformation occurring during friction stir welding induced significant changes in the microstructure within the weld and its vicinity. The weld center (stir zone) was composed of fine equiaxed grains with residual dislocations and a modest density of small precipitates compared to the neighbouring thermomechanically and heat affected zones where the density of small precipitates was much higher.

In recent years friction stir welding process has received a great deal of attention from the transport industry. During the process, heat generation and material stirring induce significant microstructural alteration in the base material, affecting the properties of the welded assembly. In this paper the influence of process parameters, namely rotating speed and welding speed, on mechanical properties of AA2024-T3 friction stir butt welds is experimentally investigated. An increase of the yield stress has been found decreasing the heat input, while an opposite variation was measured for the elongation.
