Abstract
Friction Stir Welding is a relatively new technique of welding using frictional heat as a heat source to join or weld 2 similar or dissimilar materials. It is most commonly used for aluminium alloys. In the present study, current developments in the field of Friction stir welding have been addressed. Welding parameters like tool design and geometry, tool rotation and speeds, tool tilt and depth; temperature distribution across the tool and material of weldment; microstructure and its elements like stir zone (nugget), thermo-mechanically affected zone (TMAZ), and heat affected zone (HAZ); physical and mechanical properties of the welded material; and scope of FSW for welding of other materials have been discussed.
