ORIGIN OF FSP
Adapted from the principle of friction stir welding.
But FSP is used to modify the local microstructure
Requirement of materials with functional properties and same time
reduction of the weight
Composites developed suffer from a great loss in ductility and
toughness due to incorporation of non-deformable reinforcements.
This persuade researchers to conduct
investigations in modication of the microstructure of near surface
layers.
TOOL USED
FSP tools must be made out of material that is significantly harder
and stronger than the material to be processed.

The grain size of the AZ31 matrix was obviously refined by the FSP as
shown in Fig
The grain refinement was caused due to recrystallization during the
FSP.
The grain refinement and the extremely high strength of the MWCNTs
resulted in a significant increase in the microhardness.
