• Understanding the material flow path of friction stir welding process using unthreaded tools (2010, background): “Second, initially threaded tool becomes rapidly unthreaded when used for high melting point alloys such as steels and for reinforced aluminium alloys because of the strong tool wear (Prado et al., 2001, 2003).”
• Friction stir processing of Al/SiC composites fabricated by powder metallurgy (2013, unknown): “It has also been demonstrated that metal matrix composites may be joined by friction stir welding (FSW), which is the technology upon which FSP is based (Ceschini et al., 2007; Prado et al., 2003; Wert, 2003).”
