Friction Stir Welding and Processing III

The latest fundamental and application developments in the field of friction stir welding and processing are presented in these papers. Fundamental issues in the area of microstructure, properties, fracture and fatigue, and corrosion of friction stir welded and processed aluminum, titanium, magnesium, and nickel alloys are examined in this volume.
From the 2005 TMS Annual Meeting held in San Francisco, California, February 13 – 17, 2005.
