“…The experiment conducted the statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA) to examine the appropriate range of process factors and their effects on weldment joint strength that are statistically significant [4]. The ANOVA techniques on the weld parameters are highly influential and have relative effects on responses [5]. In this study, the experimental method was optimised based on Taguchi and ANOVA in which the performance characteristics of process parameters with respect to output response of AA5083 and AA6061-T6.…”

Water cooling has the potential to improve the mechanical qualities of weldment joints in butt welding configurations. However, the joining procedure on such a configuration faces a challenging defect-free joining issue with the standard approach. This project investigates the effect of welding conditions on the joint quality using three different tool pin profiles (cylindrical straight, cylindrical threaded and tapered cylinder) during dissimilar underwater friction stir welding of a 6 mm thick plate. An experimental method following Taguchi parametric design is carried out to optimise the technique on hardness and microstructure at the weld nugget. ANOVA is used to assess the effect of each process parameter, namely tool pin profiles, welding speed, welding speed, and hardness responses. The water environment approach lowers thermal flow by maintaining consistent temperature from tool pin profiles. The combination of ongoing process parameters and fast-cooling rate induced heat input improves the welded joint's mechanical characteristics and microstructural grain. The experiment revealed the appropriate process parameters of 900 rpm, 60 mm/min, and tapered cylinder pin profile. Consequently, water-cooling significantly contributes to welded joints' mechanical properties and microstructure at the optimal parameter level, resulting in improved strength performance.

Aluminum matrix composites (AMCs) have been extensively studied primarily due to higher strength-to-weight ratio, lower cost, and higher wear resistance properties. However, increasing demand for economical and energy-efficient materials in the automotive, aerospace and other applications is tailoring research area in the agro-based composite materials. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review work is to study the influence of agro-based reinforcements on the tribological and mechanical properties of AMC's processed by various techniques. It was observed that the processing conditions can be designed to obtain uniform structures and better properties AMCs. The agro-waste reinforcement materials, such as rice husk ash, bamboo stem ash, coconut and shell ash can result in a reduction in the density of AMC's without compromising mechanical properties. Moreover, the efficient utilization of the agro-waste leads to a decrease in manufacturing cost and prevents environmental pollution, hence, can be considered as a sustainable material. The state-of-the-art revealed that the agro-based reinforcements do not form brittle composites, as in the case of ceramic reinforced composites. Hence, the study concludes that the agrobased AMCs have great potential to act as a replacement for costly and environmentally hazardous ceramic reinforced-AMCs which can especially be used in various automotive applications that demand higher strength-to-weight ratio, lower cost, and higher wear resistance.
