In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 8c as published. The microstructure of the thermomechanical affected zone (TMAZ) for the top-shoulder region of the retreating side (RS) was shown wrongly in Figure 8c. This was caused by a wrong image, from the bottom-shoulder of the same sample, being included in the assembly of images.
We have gone back to the sample, retaken the images for the TMAZ of the top-shoulder region. Hence, the following correction needs to be made to Figure 8. The corrected Figure 8c appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
