Abstract

Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) is a novel method of friction stir welding which is has prevailed in the current market especially for joining of non-ferrous metals like aluminium, copper, magnesium, etc. with similar and dissimilar metal welds possible. But the use of this method for joining of various types of steel is just coming into picture for aerospace and automotive applications. This study aims to identify the applications of this process for similar as well as dissimilar joints of various grades of steel. It also emphasizes on the parameters which affect the welding of steels by this process.
