“…In Figure 5a, grains nucleate, and in Figure 5b, grain growth is stopped via the pinning effect of reinforcement particles [95]. Equation (1) expresses that the limitation of grain size (R) by pinning of grain boundaries is directly proportional to the mean radius of added particles (r) and is inversely proportional to the volume fraction of particles added (i.e., f ) [95,96]:…”

“…On the other hand, the generated heat increases with increasing the hardness of the tool material, as well [27,28,32]. It should be described that grain size evolution during FSW/FSP is a function of material properties, environmental conditions, and process parameters such as rotation speed and transverse speed [1,27]. Moreover, it is necessary to state that temperature, deformation rate, and cooling rate are dependent on process parameters during these techniques [27,28,45].…”

“…Because Mg-based alloys have a high strength-to-weight ratio, they are extensively used in the automobile industry [119]. Thus, the fuel consumption of the vehicle is reduced using them [1][2][3][4]6,120]. On the other hand, these alloys possess suitable biocompatibility and are applicable as a biomaterial.…”

“…Magnesium (Mg)-based alloys are widely used in the industries of automotive, aerospace, electronics, transportation, and so on [1][2][3][4][5]. The cause of this is related to low density (i.e., low weight), high shock absorption, high damping, good electromagnetic shielding, high specific strength, and good hot formability [2][3][4]6,7].…”

On the other hand, the casting of these alloys is cost-effective, and they can be recycled [1,2,7,8]. Mg alloys are also used in the nuclear industries due to their low tendency to absorb neutrons, excellent resistance to carbon dioxide, and suitable thermal conductivity [2].…”

Friction stir welding (FSW) and friction stir processing (FSP) are two of the most widely used solid-state welding techniques for magnesium (Mg) and magnesium alloys. Mg-based alloys are widely used in the railway, aerospace, nuclear, and marine industries, among others. Their primary advantage is their high strength-to-weight ratio and usefulness as a structural material. Due to their properties, it is difficult to weld using traditional gas- or electric-based processes; however, FSW and FSP work very well for Mg and its alloys. Recently, extensive studies have been carried out on FSW and FSP of Mg-based alloys. This paper reviews the context of future areas and existing constraints for FSW/FSP. In addition, in this review article, in connection with the FSW and FSP of Mg alloys, research advancement; the influencing parameters and their influence on weld characteristics; applications; and evolution related to the microstructure, substructure, texture and phase formations as well as mechanical properties were considered. The mechanisms underlying the joining and grain refinement during FSW/FSP of Mg alloys-based alloys are discussed. Moreover, this review paper can provide valuable and vital information regarding the FSW and FSP of these alloys for different sectors of relevant industries.
