A continuous interface between the two alloys is necessary in order to have unhampered electron path. Friction stir welding, especially in a lap configuration (FSLW), is a proven method in the production of continuous welds with dissimilar metals, producing a metallurgical joint in the form of interfacial intermetallic layer formed in between the plates. However, from existing literature there is no evidence of a discontinuity-free interface in aluminium-to-copper FSLW. en Auckland University of Technology Friction stir lap welding Aluminium-to-copper Interfacial continuity Material flow Scriber Understanding Material Flow at the Interface of Friction Stir Lap Welding (FSLW) of Al-to-Cu Plates Thesis OpenAccess Auckland University of Technology Doctoral Theses Doctor of Philosophy No No open.access
