Title: Flexible Hybrid Friction Stir Joining Technology

Program Document ·
OSTI ID:1218722

This factsheet describes a research project whose goal is to advance the friction stir welding (FSW) process as a manufacturing technology that can be deployed for on-site construction of large, complex and typically thick-sectioned structures made of high performance and high-temperature materials. This would transform FSW from a specialty joining process into one with pervasive application potential across a number of industrial sectors where the payoff of energy reduction, environmental and economic benefits would be significant.
