Joints were fabricated using different combination of process parameters such as rotational speed and welding speed. Based on macrostructural analysis, the friction stir welding window was constructed. The strength values of joints at different regions of friction stir welding window were analyzed using tensile properties, microstructural studies, and the fracture location of joints was correlated with the lowest hardness distribution profiles. These windows will act as reference maps for selecting appropriate friction stir welding process parameters to get good quality welds of AA2219 aluminium alloys.展开更多
