Cover Story: Cover story: Numerically based phase transformation maps for friction stir welded aluminum 2017A and 7075 align with hardness profiles and positron lifetime spectra taken across the weld zone. Near the weld center, process temperatures are sufficient to fully dissolve the equilibrium η phase in 7075 and partially dissolve the equilibrium S phase in 2017A. Upon cooling, GP and GPB zones re-precipitate, and hardness recovers. View this paper.
