A predictive framework for friction stir extrusion of AA6061 powder: coupling thermomechanical evolution, bonding and hardness

Abstract Friction Stir Extrusion (FSE) is emerging as a promising solid-state manufacturing process for the consolidation of fragmented aluminum feedstock such as machining chips and powder, offering substantial energy savings over conventional remelting. Despite its growing rele...
