Abstract: A new control variable is introduced, that when combined with previous dependent control criteria on other variables results in a control program that can create a superior weld while minimizing wear on the FSW tool, wherein the tool repeatedly experiences the same thermal and mechanical loading within specified control windows during every repeated weld sequence because flow stresses and tool loads are driven by- temperature, and dependent control loops account for differences in material and heat that is transferred at different rates in varying locations throughout a friction stir weld.

Abstract translation: 引入了一个新的控制变量，当与其他变量上的先前的依赖控制标准相结合时，可以创建一个控制程序，该控制程序可以在最小化FSW工具的磨损的同时创建优异的焊缝，其中工具反复经历相同的热和机械负荷 在每个重复的焊接顺序期间控制窗口，因为流动应力和工具负载是由温度驱动的，并且相关的控制回路解释了在整个摩擦搅拌焊接处的不同位置以不同速率传递的材料和热量的差异。
