轻合金搅拌摩擦焊接/加工中组织控制与力学行为研究

As a joining/processing technique by means of severe plastic deformation, friction stir welding and processing (FSW/P) has a wide application prospect. However, the key factors controlling the microstructure and mechanical behavior of FSW/P samples are still not well understood, and establishing effective controlling and predicting methods are highly desired. In this study, typical aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys and titanium alloys are subjected to FSW/P investigations under different conditions. The initial material flow and microstructural evolution during FSW/P of different-grained materials are analyzed in detail by using various tracers and tool extraction technology with rapid instant cooling. The relationship between friction coefficient and temperature is solved by the inverse solution method, and the temperature, residual stress and strain, and material flow during FSW/P are modeled by self-developed finite-element software. The mechanical properties and fracture behavior of the FSW joints are systematically investigated under complicated loading conditions. These investigations will clarify the mechanisms of the material flow, dynamic recrystallization, accelerated particle dissolution and element diffusion/reaction as well as the key influencing factors, and elucidate the response mechanism of the FSW joints under complicated loading conditions, thereby establishing the guide lines for the FSW tool design and parameter optimization, and achieving the effective control and prediction of the microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints. It is expected that this study will speed up the research/development and industrial applications of FSW/P in our country and enrich the classic theories of metal hot-working.
