Evaluation of microstructure and wear behavior of friction stir processed cast aluminum alloy

As-cast A356 aluminum alloy processed by friction stir processing at various rotation rates was subjected to microstructural analysis and dry sliding wear tests. Friction stir processing resulted in a significant microstructural modification and improvement in wear behavior of A356. Wear resistance...
